The movement of the Earth's plates is known as plate tectonics. Geologists think the plates move due to a build up of extreme heat in the Earth's crust.
What else can I help you with?
How do geologists think earths atmosphere formed?
how do geologists think earths atmosphere is formed
Most geologists think that the movement of earths plates caused by?
Geologists have hypothesized that the movement of tectonic plates is related to convection currents in the earth's mantle. Convection currents describe the rising, spread, and sinking of gas, liquid, or molten material caused by the application of heat.
What do geologists think cause the earth's plates to move?
Geologists believe that the movement of the Earth's plates is caused by the heat from the Earth's core creating convection currents in the mantle. These currents cause the plates to slowly drift and move over time, a process known as plate tectonics.
Why do you think geologists use drills bits covered with small diamonds to drill earths crusts?
Because they have to get through the minerals and rocks in the earths crust.
Which two processes do scientists think move the earths lithospheric plates?
bruh
Why do you think that the work of geologists is important to our daily lives?
geologists affect our lives in the following ways. they monitor seismic activities within the earths interior and are able to warn us of impending earthquakes and impending shockwaves geologists monitor volcanoes and are able tom predict when the next eruption will occur and the expected magnitude geologists are also important in the process of drilling boreholes as they have crucial information on the type of soil found in different areas and they can offer crucial advice in the process of drilling bore holes geologists also moniter the earths magnetic fields and can use this fields to date rocks which can then tell us crucial movements of tectonic plates
What causes the corolis effect?
I think the primary factor is the earths rotation. And it called the Coriolis effect.
The driving forces of tectonic plates are related to convection currents in Earth's?
mantle.
What is the largest land mass in the eastern hemisphere?
I'm just guessing.... I think it would be Eurasia. Geologists consider Europe and Asia to be one land mass. I think they are on the same continental plates, or something like that anyway!
How did people in 19th century think mountains were formed?
they thought the metallic plates of the earths crust rubs together and pushes the earth up
What do you think is The basis of the scientist in dividing earths lithosphere into several plates?
Geographical activities such as volcanic eruptions and earthquakes form the basis of this division.
