What is the accurate shape of a globe allows mapmakers to show earths continents and oceans?
size of island ,continents, and body of water.
What forces below earth surface shape landforms?
The tectonic plates below earths surface shape earths landforms
What causes surface ocean currents to flow in a circular pattern or earths revolution earths revolutoin or earths rotation?
Surface ocean currents flow in a circular pattern due to a combination of Earth's rotation (Coriolis effect) and the shape of the continents. The Coriolis effect causes water to deflect to the right in the Northern Hemisphere and to the left in the Southern Hemisphere, resulting in the circular motion of currents. This, along with the shape of the coastlines, influences the direction and pattern of ocean currents.
What causes the formation of tidal bulges?
Tidal bulges are caused by the gravitational pull of the moon and the sun on the Earth's oceans, creating a slight distortion in the shape of the water.
If Earths plates and continents are constantly moving what effect does this have on Earths oceans?
The movement of Earth's plates and continents can cause changes in sea level, ocean currents, and the distribution of marine life. It can also affect the shape of ocean basins and the location of coastlines.
What shape is the earths moon?
sphere
Do tides change the earths shape over time?
Yes, tides can influence the Earth's shape over time through a process known as tidal deformation. The gravitational pull of the moon and the sun causes the Earth's crust and oceans to bulge, resulting in slight changes in the planet's shape. These deformations can affect geological processes and contribute to the long-term evolution of the Earth's surface. However, the changes are relatively small compared to other geological forces like tectonic activity.
Shape of earths orbit resembles?
oval
What was the theory about the earths shape before?
oblong
What causes the Earths spherical shape?
The Earth's spherical shape is due to gravity pulling mass inward equally from all directions, creating a balance. This shape is the most stable and efficient way for the planet to distribute its mass and maintain equilibrium.
How do humans shape the world in which they life?
our activities, movements and settlements shape the Earths surface.
