it took so long because, the earths mantel is solid
What else can I help you with?
Why did it take so long for the continents to move to where they are today?
The movement of continents is driven by plate tectonics, which is a slow process. Over millions of years, the movement of tectonic plates causes the continents to shift positions. Factors such as the size and composition of the plates, as well as the heat within the Earth's mantle, all contribute to the gradual movement of the continents to their current locations.
How long ago did modern continents begin to take shape?
Modern continents began to take shape around 200 million years ago during the breakup of the supercontinent Pangaea. This process resulted in the formation of the continents we see today, as they drifted into their current positions.
How much force does it take to move the continents?
Moving continents is driven by plate tectonics, which involve the slow movement of tectonic plates. This movement is caused by forces generated by heat from the Earth's interior and gravitational forces. The exact force required to move continents varies depending on the specific tectonic processes involved.
How long does it take to move into a house?
month
Is it normal for a baby to take long to move?
yes
How long would it take to drive to Vienna austria from New Mexico?
You can't drive, there is an ocean between the continents.
How long would it take to build a pyramid today?
It will take about 350 years.
Does seafloor spreading make continents move apart?
yes, but very slowly. it would take thousands of years for any real distance to be created
How long it take for a star to move?
Stars are constantly in movement.
How do lyrebird move?
they have their heads lowered and they take long strides
Does the earth have 7 continents and will it ever change?
It depends how you count continents, but I could list seven, those being Europe, Asia, Africa, North America, South America, Antarctica, and Australia. However, Europe and Asia are actually part of the same land mass, sometimes called Eurasia, and Australia may be too small to really qualify, so perhaps there are as few as five. And yes, the number of continents will change. Continents float on the magma of the Earth's mantle, and slowly move, a process which is officially called continental drift. As they move, they will eventually collide, and merge into one giant continent. But that will take an extremely long time.
How can the continents come back together?
Continents are part of tectonic plates that move around on Earth's surface. In theory, continents could come back together through tectonic plate movement if they were to collide again. This process would take millions of years and could lead to the formation of a supercontinent, like Pangea.
