In what direction do tectonic plates go?
Tectonic plates move from east to west as a whole due to the coreolis (not sure of spelling) effect.
Can an earthquake create a volcano?
well................. not always. Sometimes it could a little EARTH QUAKE, but it depends where you live.
What are three types of faults and how are they diffrent?
Transverse - Plates move side by side Convergent - Plates move towards each other, usually one gets subducted. Divergent - Plates move away from each other.
Do transverse waves move perpendicular or parallel to the direction of the wave?
They move perpendicular to the direction they transfer
What is plates when there is an earthquake?
Tectonic plates influence earthquakes because of convection cells that move the plates around. When the plates collide, they cause a shockwave of energy released in the form of a earthquake.
How is a volcano formed at a continental rift?
A volcano is formed at a continental rift when the Earth's tectonic plates move apart, creating a gap in the Earth's crust. Magma from the mantle rises to the surface through this gap, leading to the formation of a volcano.
Why is an active volcano that type of volcano?
a volcano gets active when tectonic plates move, then the lava tubes start working and then it gets active. anusha gupta
What can form where plates move together?
If plates move together they will make a montinous or a hill side area. If lava is flowing beneath it it can make a volcano and potentialy erupt.
How do a volcano devlop?
Plate Tectonics, when the Earth's plates move they hit one another rising up to form volcano's and mountains.
What is it called when plates move apart creating new crust?
Divergence.
In which direction do plates travel at a convergent boundary?
At a convergent boundary, plates move towards each other.
In which direction does a pyroclastic flow move away from a volcano?
A pyroclastic flow moves away from a volcano in all directions.
In what direction do tectonic plates go?
Tectonic plates move from east to west as a whole due to the coreolis (not sure of spelling) effect.
What are Hawaii internals forces?
As the plates move move away, the volcano stops erupting and a new one is formed in its placed.
Why did the volcano in Iceland erupt?
the heat of the volcano made the ash rise eventually the pressure was 2 much and it erupted
What they form when the plates moves slowly?
trenches or mountains or rift valleys or faults depends which direction the plates move
What directions do the plates move relative to one another at a divergent plate boundary?
they move away form each other, so what ever the direction the plates are the move the apposite direction away
