Earth's surface is almost not flat at all. Its surface is composed of different, broken up pieces called tectonic plates. All of Earth's tectonic plates are always moving. Sometimes too slowly for it to be detected without instruments such as a seismograph. However, the forces of the tectonic plates are extremely great. Two tectonic plates moving in the same direction push the surface upwards, creating mountains or folded mountains. If two tectonic plates are moving in opposite directions, then it could create a trench in the ocean.
Rivers and streams also play a role in shaping Earth's surface. The rivers and streams flow over land and erode the underlying surface. The water may carry small particles of eroded rock which would collide with a surface and increase the amount of erosion. Some create huge valleys or canyons. For example, the Grand Canyon was eroded by water travelling through the created gap. It eventually became the size it is today, but ,over time, gradually becomes bigger due to weathering, erosion, and abrasion.
What else can I help you with?
What is a piece of stone or metal from space that falls to eath's surface?
Meteorite
Why do they call eath water planet?
Because the Earth's surface is primarily water. 70.8% of the surface is water, 29.2 % is land.
How much does eath ocean cover the earth surface?
71 pecent of the earth
Is there more water or land on the eath?
There is about 3 times more water surface than land on Earth.
What is a series of processes on and beneath eath's surface that changes one kind of rock into another?
Rock cycle
Why does the moon's surface have more craters from meteorite strikes than the Earth surface?
it is easy the eathhave a capa de osono that protect the eath but the moon dont have it
Why do we selibrat Eath Day?
to thank the eath
Igneous rock form on eath surface?
Igneous rocks do form on the earths surface. A volcano erupts and the lava that comes out cools and hardens forming igneous rocks.
What is the gravity on eath?
Gravitational acceleration near Earth's surface is about 9.8 meters/second2. Equivalently, every kilogram - near Earth's surface - has a weight of about 9.8 newton.
Would there be winds if the eath's surface were the same temperature everywhere?
Yes - if there were pressure gradients created by some other means.
Where is eath in your solar system?
There is no such place as "eath" in the solar system.
How eath became eath?
it didn't so don't ask
