The shifting of tectonic plates causes extreme friction, thus heat. The heat is only maintained as long as the magma remains under high pressure. Ounce it's released, it begins to lose heat rapidly.

When using magma and water to create energy the magma's heat turns the water into what?
The magma's heat turns the water into steam, which is usually harnessed to turn some sort of mechanism, making energy.
What is rising up from inside of earth?
Heat energy, magma.
What is contact metamorphism a result of?
hot magma
What does radioactive decay do to magma?
Radioactive decay in the core of the Earth is the key factor responsible for its heating, and thus the heat of the magma.
What happens after a metamorphic rock is formed?
Metamorphic rock does not come out of magma. Igneous rock does.

What does magma need to do for a rock to form?
Magma is basicaly the same as lava, except magma is still in the volcano, when magma has come out of the volcano, it has become lava.
