What keeps asteroids moving through space?
the gravity of large masses. the large masses could be other planets or stars or our sun Their own momentum. other masses only deflect them by changing their momentum.
What are the large landmasses in the ocean called?
Large land areas are called continents.
What happens when air mass moves over an area?
A wind is a moving air mass. If the air mass has passed over a large ocean, it could mean clouds and rain falling over an area.
Large masses if water in frozen form are called?
Glaciers
Where does a marine polar air mass originate?
In the large air masses of the Tropics of Capricon and the Tropics of Cancer are where they're formed. You can figure this out from the name. "Maritime" refers to the ocean, and "tropical" refers to the zone around the equator between the Tropics of Capricorn and Cancer. Thus maritime tropical air masses originate over the ocean in the tropics. Similar logic works with the names of other types of air masses as well.
Which term to large masses of slowly moving ice?
glaciers
Continents are large moving masses of land True or False?
True
What keeps asteroids moving through space?
the gravity of large masses. the large masses could be other planets or stars or our sun Their own momentum. other masses only deflect them by changing their momentum.
What is a large amount of air moving across land and water called?
air masses
When large land masses move slowly over long periods of time it is referred to as continental?
glaciers
What is any large mass of ice moving slowly over land called?
It is a glacier.
If two spaceships have equal masses and one is stationary and one is moving What is their combined speed if they collide and stick together?
The new speed for the combined masses will be one-half the original velocity of the moving spaceship, since the momentum is applied to a mass twice as large.
What are the large masses of land?
Large masses of land are called continents.
Western expansion in 19th century America refers to?
The large amounts of Americans moving west
Where can you find large masses of rocks?
We can find large masses on oceans and seas.
According to general relativity how do large masses affect time?
Close to large masses, time elapses more slowly. For example, on the surface of the Earth, time elapses a tiny bit slower than in outer space. In the case of more massive and dense objects, such as neutron stars, the effects are more drastic.Rotating masses produce additional effects.
What is large land masses that move slowly over long perionds of time reffered to as continental?
I believe you are asking about Continental drift. See related link.
