mamelon
What a ridge push?
Ridge push is a gravitation force that causes a plate to move away from the crest of an ocean ridge, and into a subduction zone.
Which of these is a boundary where two tectonic plates move away from each other leaving a newly constructed ridge in between?
divergent
What are the three processes that cause tectonic plates to move?
Three processes that contribute to the motion of tectonic plates are convection currents, ridge push, and slab pull. Convection currents is when the mantle rises, cools, sinks and heats, then rises and repeats the cycle. Ridge push is a gravitational force that causes a plate to move. Slab pull is the movement of tectonic plate lithosphere due to convection currents in the asthenosphere.
What is a boundary where two tectonic plates move away from each other leaving a newly constructed ridge in between?
divergent boundary
Why does the lithosphere thicken away from the ridge crest?
Cooling as rock moves away from the ridge crest causes the rock to become increasingly rigid.
What is a ridge push?
Ridge push is a gravitation force that causes a plate to move away from the crest of an ocean ridge, and into a subduction zone.
What causes earthquakes volcanoes trenches mid-ocean ridge?
Plate tectonics.
Which Of Theses Is A Boundary Where Two Tectonic Plates Move Away From Each Other Leaving A Newly Constructed ridge in between?
divergent
What is the difference between ridge push and slab pull?
Ridge push is a gravitation force that causes a plate to move away from the crest of an ocean ridge, and into a subduction zone. The Slab pull force is a tectonic plate force due to subduction. The difference is the force of motion.
What are the two main causes for Harry Hess' mid ocean ridge?
it is formed from convection currents.
