In which earth layer does crustal plate movement occur because of convection cells?
in which earth layers does crusal plate movement occur because of convection cells
How does earthquake occur?
Earthquakes are caused when pressure builds up as two tectonic plates move together. As the pressure is released, an earthquake is produced.
How do the motions of the Earth affect us?
Day and night, plus the seasons. The rotational direction of cyclones.
How are hot spots used to track plate movement?
Hot spots are at fixed locations in the Earth's mantle where heat from the Earth's interior rises to the surface and produces volcanism. The Earth's plates, which are slowly but constantly moving, are pierced by the uprising magma. As they move away from the hotspot, the volcanoes become dormant and are replaced by new volcanoes. The direction of the line formed from previous volcanoes indicates the direction of the plate movement.
Where does plasma occur on the earth?
where plasma occur on the earth
In which earth layer does crustal plate movement occur because of convection cells?
in which earth layers does crusal plate movement occur because of convection cells
What are the stars that tells direction?
All stars can be used to tell which direction you are travelling in as the movement of the earth is in a consistant direction, allowing you to compare your movement with the direction that the stars are travelling in.
What causes the seasons to occur what causes the seasons to occur?
it is the tilt of the earth in the suns direction
What is the direction of earth's movement on the imaginary line?
east to west
Where does crustal place movement occur?
hi their people of this earth
Is there any relationship between earth revolution and direction of movement of airplane?
No, not really. But the Earth's winds, likes the westerlies or the easterlies, are affected by Earth's rotation. These winds affect aeroplanes. Therefore, the Earth's revolution indirectly affects the direction of movement of aeroplanes.
What relationships between the earth and the sun causes the season to occur .?
it is the tilt of the earth in the suns direction

A satellite in orbit around earth is always falling towards earth?
Yes. They accelerate (change the direction of their movement) towards Earth, and this may be labelled as "falling".Yes.

What earth crust?
The crust is the upper layer of the earth. It is where the movement of plates occur due to which earthquakes occur. The Earth's crust is a thin layer of rock, like skin on an apple.
What feature of the mantle allows movement of Earth's crust to occur?
The proces is called convection
What do you call the motion when a planet heads in the opposite direction?
A planet's predominant movement (NOT the daily movement related to Earth's rotation, but the apparent movement compared to the background stars) is from west to east. If a planet moves in this direction it is said to be "prograde", if it moves in the opposite direction, it is said to be "retrograde".
