What is the length of boundary?
To answer this question I would need more details. Being that this is classified under plate tectonics I would need to know if you are talking about divergent, convergent or transform boundaries.
What planet length in day is close to the length of earths day?
Mars.
What is earths day length?
24 hours.
What is the lenghth of earths year?
the length of earths year is 365 days, tho its not really hahaha
What do scientist use to describe the sequence and length of changes to the earths crust?
Wave Length.
How is the San Andreas Fault explained by the theory of plate tectonics?
The Transform Boundary (or Strike-Slip Fault) is caused by two plates pushing against each other. Few actually occur on land, most happen on the seafloor. Transform boundaries often create split stream beds, with the water flowing off in different directions, or valleys where the rocks have been ground up by the sliding plates. Many earthquakes are caused by Transform Boundaries' movement, although most are quite shallow. The San Andreas Fault, running through two-thirds of California, is one of the few transform boundaries found on land. It has a length of 1300km and in some areas is tens of kilometres wide, moving approximately 5cm per year. For the last 10 million years, the North American and Pacific plates have been sliding against each other, forming the San Andreas Fault. It separates two diverging boundaries; the East Pacific Rise and the Juan de Fuca.
What does earths latitude have to do with the length of the day?
i dont know yet
What is earths length year?
Roughly 365.23 days. (rounded)
What is difference between width length and breadth?
Length usually refers to the boundaries of an idea. Breadth refers to the depth of the idea.
What is length of earths rotation on its axis?
23hours 56minutes 4seconds (rounded)
When an error of 1 percent is made in the length of a square the percentage error in the area of square will be?
The percentage error in the area of the square will be twice the percentage error in the length of the square. This is because the error in the length affects both the length and width of the square, resulting in a compounded effect on the area. Therefore, if there is a 1 percent error in the length, the percentage error in the area would be 2 percent.
What kind of fault would you expect to find at a divergent plate margin?
Divergent plate boundaries are moving apart so you would expect normal faults to form. Where these have significance on a regional scale they are known as detachment faults. It is also common to find transform faults running at right angles to divergent boundaries that cause offsets in the boundary along its length. Please see the related links for more information.
