What else can I help you with?
Why doe partly molten material rise toward earth's surface?
Less/dence material rises
Why some partly molten material rises towards Earths surface.?
Because it becomes less dense as it gets hotter. Less dense=lighter and therefore rises. Just like the wax in a lava lamp.
Why do partly molten materials rise toward earths surface?
Magma is molten or partially molten rock beneath the earth's surface and is lighter than the surrounding rock so it tends to rise. As it moves upward, the magma encounters colder rock and begins to cool.
What is a hollow or depression in earths surface wholly or partly surrounded by higher land?
A basin
What layer of the earth is made up of partly molten?
The layer of the Earth that is made up of partly molten material is the asthenosphere. This region lies beneath the lithosphere and extends from about 100 kilometers to 700 kilometers deep. The asthenosphere is characterized by its semi-fluid properties, allowing for the movement of tectonic plates above it. Its partially molten state plays a crucial role in geothermal activity and the dynamics of plate tectonics.
What is the layer under the crust which is hot and partly molten?
The mantle
Can you come up with a sentence with the word igneous rock in it?
The igneous rock is formed when a rock that is solidified from molten or partly molten matierial.
What type of material partly scatters light so objects cannot be seen clearly through it?
Frosted glass is a type of material that partly scatters light, making objects difficult to see clearly through it. This is due to its rough and textured surface which diffuses the light that passes through.
Why do you think the iron at the earths core is partly liquid?
Heat and pressure.
What layer of earth is mad up partly of crust and partly of mantle material?
the lithosphere
Does igneous basalt form partly as the result of surface processes?
No, igneous basalt forms from the cooling and solidification of molten rock below Earth's surface (intrusive) or from lava flows at the surface (extrusive). While surface weathering can alter the appearance of basalt, the formation of basalt itself is primarily a result of volcanic activity.
Is half of a circle a curved surface?
Partly.
