What do scientists use to measure the rate of movement of oceanic plates?
sea-floor spreading
How do you calculate the rate of seafloor spreading?
rate of spreading for stripe = width of stripe / time duration If a magnetic strips is 60 km wide and formed over 2 million years, then the rate at which spreading formed the was 30 km/m.y. The rate is equivalent to 3 cm/year. Spreading added an equal width of oceanic crust to a plate on the other side of the mid-ocean ridge, so the total rate of spreading across the ridge was 60 km/m.y. (6 cm/year), a typical rate of seafloor spreading.
What is the spreading rate of the East Pacific Rise?
10cmy
What is the modern seafloor spreading rate range?
Typical rates of spreading average around 5 centimeter (2 inches) per year.
How fast does sea floor spreading occur?
It ranges from 2 to around 11 cm per year.

How do you calculate time and a half overtime?
Multiply the hourly rate by 1.5
Sea floor spreading occurs at an average rate of 5 cm per year at this rate how long would it take for the red sea to expand 1km?
5 years
How to calculate per minute how long a 5200 liter water tank will take to half fill at a rate of 7 liters per minute?
Basically two steps. First, you calculate how much volume half the tank would have. Then you simply divide this volume by the rate.
The average spreading rate for fast spreading divergent plates?
100-200 mm
Is the North Atlantic spreading faster than the South Atlantic?
Neither is spreading faster. They are both spreading at the same rate.
New ocean floor is constantly being produced in the process known as?
There are three processes that add material to the ocean floor: Sedimentation, and Vulcanism. Sedimentation is usually caused by skeletons of sea animals falling to the ocean floor. It can be argued that this is not new material but only recycled materials. But some of the remains are calcium or other deposits that are added from land based run off. Silt deposits also run into the ocean floor from the land, Vulcanism results from shifts in the ocean mantle with new material coming from deeper in the earth and spouting through volcanoes or emerging as new ocean floor at the rising edges of the tectonic plates.
How do you calculate half-life?
Check the time between your first decay rate and when the decay rate reaches half this number. Half life T1/2 is calculated using the below formula T1/2=0.6931/r Where r is disintegration constant
