Is the earths surface stable and stationary now?
The Earth's surface is not entirely stable or stationary; it is constantly undergoing changes due to geological processes. Tectonic plates move, causing earthquakes, volcanic activity, and the formation of mountains. Additionally, erosion, weathering, and human activities contribute to surface alterations. Overall, while certain areas may appear stable, the Earth's surface is dynamic and ever-changing.
Where volcanoes and earthquakes occur?
Anywhere where the earths plates meet. Earthquakes occur only were there is an epicenter. Were ever the epicenter is the earthquake will happen.
How are earthquakes volcanoes and plate tectonics related?
Earthquakes, volcanoes, and plate tectonics are all related to the movement of tectonic plates. Earthquakes happen when these plates grind against each other, releasing energy. Volcanoes occur at plate boundaries, where material from the mantle rises to the surface. Plate tectonics theory explains the movement of these plates, their interactions, and the geological phenomena associated with them.
What is plate tectonics continental drift?
Plate tectonics is the scientific theory that Earth's outer layer is divided into large, rigid plates that move relative to each other. Continental drift is the idea that the Earth's continents were once joined together in a single landmass and have since drifted apart over millions of years due to the movement of the tectonic plates.
How do the locations of earthqakes support the theory of plate tectonics?
Observations of earthquakes and volcanic activity support the theory of plate tectonics because they both occur on boundaries. Boundaries are where plates meet and either converge, diverge or transform.
What are the benefits of stationary weather collections?
you`d be able to be a meteorologist
How are plate tectonics and volcanoes related?
The tectonic plates are constantly moving on Earth. When they scrape against one another, an earthquake usually arises on land due to the huge amount of force the giant plates have. When they pull apart and cause a gap between them, magma from the Earth's core is able to escape to the surface, causing a volcanic eruption. and if you ever want to make this into a concept web yuo must you the first line on plate tectonics ant then write next to it that " Plate tectonics
What is the highest point ever recorded in the world?
Highest point in relation to what? land elevation? It would be Mount Everest. The highest point on the earths crust, Mount Everest stands at 29,000 ft. It is suggested that because of plate tectonics, Everest is growing by .16 in per year
Can you get closer to the sun or the earths core?
You are already closer to the earths core than you will ever be able to get to the sun
Can plates ever move ever without forming new land?
YES!
That continents will ever rejoin to form another supercontinent like Pangaea?
It is likely that the continents will continue to drift apart and eventually form a new supercontinent in around 200-250 million years. This cyclic process is driven by plate tectonics and the movement of Earth's tectonic plates.
What body in the solar system is stationary?
For the purposes of modelling the Sun is assumed stationary, but we know the Sun is going round the galaxy at a good speed, so everything is on the move all the time.
