What happens to rocks above earths surface over the years?

What happens when magma reaches the surface and cools?
it forms igneous rocks
What happens when rocks beneath earth surface undergo stress?
what happens when rocks beneath earths surface under goes trees
What happens when rocks move?
They move and go disco
What happens to Earth surface when horizontal pressure is applied to rocks?
When a horizontal pressure is applied to rocks, the earth's surface will form lines that are perpendicular to the direction of the pressure. This can be compared to folds in a wrinkled rug lying on a floor.
What depth below earths surface do you have to go before the pressure and temperature cause rocks to melt?
At depths of 50 to 200 km below Earth's surface rocks will melt.
What rocks are almost molten and churn about?
Magma is the molten rock beneath the Earth's surface that can churn about and eventually solidify to form igneous rocks. This process happens in the Earth's mantle and can lead to volcanic activity when magma reaches the surface as lava.
What happens to rocks as they move along the ocean floor?
So my friend told me this, i don't know if its right but here you go! When new rock forms from magma old rocks gets pulled away. hot rocks gets bigger and goes up to the surface than gets cold and heavy and sinks back down.
What are igneous rocks that form on earth surface?
igneous rocks that form on earth's surface
What rocks originate from the surface of the earth?
Sedimentary rocks form on the Earth's crust, and can form metamorphic rocks when buried. Igneous rocks form under the surface, or when liquid magma reaches the surface as lava.
Molten rocks that cool at the earths surface are known as?
Lava.
How is magma different from rocks on Earth's surface?
Magma is under the surface of Earth's crust. Rocks on earth's surface are well ... on Earth's surface. Magma is also molten rock, not solid rock like the rocks on earth's surface.
