How thick is a single pane glass window typically? I recently broke the window in my dorm. I was resting my foot on the window, and it just broke underneath. I measured the thickness of the broken window, and found it only to be an eighth inch. I feel almost like I should be the one complaining...

By Andrew Alden. Metamorphic rocks are the third great class of rocks. These are what happens when sedimentary and igneous rocks become changed, or metamorphosed (changed in form), by conditions underground. The four main agents that metamorphose rocks are heat, pressure, fluids and strain.
In certain conditions, igneous or sedimentary rocks can be changed into different rocks under intense heat and pressure. These rocks literally change into new substances very different from their old ones. This usually happens as rocks are buried deep within the crust. One of the most common metamorphic rocks is marble.
