What else can I help you with?
These are created when sections of the earths surface are folded and thrust upward?
Mountain ranges are created when sections of the Earth's surface are folded and thrust upward due to tectonic plate movements. The pressure exerted by these movements causes the rocks to deform and bend, eventually leading to the formation of mountain ranges.
What is the correct order upward from earths surface?
Troposphere, Stratosphere, Mesosphere, Thermosphere, and Exosphere - layers of the atmosphere :)
Density causes hot plastic-like rock to be forced upward towards the surface to cool and then sink. This cycle is called a current?
convection current
Why does oil found in an oil trap shoot upward when a well is dug into it?
Oil is under pressure underground, and when a well is dug into an oil trap, the release of this pressure causes the oil to shoot upward. This natural upward flow is driven by the difference in pressure between the oil reservoir and the surface.
Could property of magma that cause it to be forced upward towards earth surface?
Because magma is less dense than the surrounding solid rock, it is forced upward toward the surface. When magma reaches the surface and flows from volcanoes, it is called lava.
Can density difference force magma upward into cooler layers of earths interior?
FALSE: gravity cannot force magma upwards, gravity can olny force downwars. the reason magma shoots from the earths interior is because the pressure from the magma trying to push through the force gravity causes an eruption.
What do you call the ability of water to climb upward in narrow tubes?
The adhesive forces of the polar water molecules to the glass surface, breaks the surface tension of the water and causes a capillary action up the sides of the tube.
What causes the lava to be forced upward?
pressure
What causes the air pressure drop as you travel upward from earth's surface?
Pressure is the weight of air column on unit area. As you go upward, this air column gets shorter, its weight gets less, hence air pressure gets lower.
Is upward thrust the same as normal force?
No. Upward means... well, upward. "Normal" in this context means "perpendicular" or "at a right angle" - i.e., at a right angle to some surface you are considering. This may happen to be upward as well, but it can be just about any direction.
What is the upward force exerted on a body by that into which it is immersed?
When a body is immersed in water , due to pressure difference between upper surface and lower surface of the body an unbalanced upward force acts on a body . This unbalanced upward force is called Buoyancy force
What force causes you to move upward when you jump into the air?
The force that causes you to move upward when you jump into the air is the normal force exerted by the ground on your feet. This force opposes the force of gravity acting on your body, allowing you to overcome gravity and move upward.
