By Knowing the average speed of a plate what can scientists estimate about Earth's continents?
Knowledge of Earth's plate tectonics allows seismologists, geologists, and various other scientists to predict what the face of the planet will look like in future, and what it has looked like in the past.
How have scientists learned about the interior layers of the earth?
Scientists learn about the layers deep within the Earth's crust by studying how seismic waves travel through the Earth. ... By looking at the time of arrival of the main set of waves, and how the frequencies of the waves are arranged within the set, scientists can learn about the density and other properties of the layers.
How old do geologists think the earth is?
Geologists and other related Earth scientists have estimated the age of the Earth to be approximately 4.65 Billion years old based on a wide variety of scientific experiments and data.
How have scientists been able to determine the composition of Earth's layers?
Severals methods are all combined to give the scientist info on the layers of the Earth. For example they study the influence of the earth on orbits of the moon and other planets (mass distribution of the earth, mass density). They study the way seismic waves go through the earth which gives knowledge of layers. They use wave to sound. They examine sample of earth.
Earhtquakes most commonly occur at what distance below earth's surface in miles?
a earthquake can really start anywhere but it is usually started at the earths core (middle). Other names are the epicenter which is were the earthquakes starts at the earths surface. The focus is where it begins inside the earth.....
How can studying earth help scientists understand other planets?
Studying the earth helps scientists to understand other planets since the earth is part of the solar system. Scientists use the features of the earth to compare them with what other planets hold.
Who is someone who studies the composition of the Earth's structure?
A geophysicist.
Can you see the moon on the other side of the earth from Egypt?
The moon can be seen anywhere from Earth.
What other information do scientists look to seismic waves for?
Scientists look to the seismic waves to reveal the Earth's interior.
What scientists study how people and the earth affect each other?
Ecologists study how living organisms and the earth interact with each other.
Why were scientists very excited when they were able to create xenon tetrafluoride?
They had believed that none of the noble gases would form any compounds with other elements.
How do scientists believe the layers of the earth were formed?
dust and ice and other partcials
Why do scientists on Earth want to know so much about other planets?
We may possibly know how Earth was created.
Are there any other planets near earth where we can easily go there?
We have no direct evidence yet of life anywhere other than Earth.
What is the Earth Science Enterprise?
A progam to study Earth by using satellites in the same way that scientists study other planets.
How can studing earth help scientists understand other planets?
It can help by them comparing and contrasting.
What other surface features of earth could scientists study with satellites?
Because they are carved out
