What is one result of convection currents in earths outer core?
One result of convection currents in Earth's outer core is the generation of Earth's magnetic field. As the hot, molten iron in the outer core moves in a circular motion due to convection currents, it creates a dynamo effect that generates the magnetic field.
Is the magnetic pole near the Earths true North Pole a magnetic south pole or a magnetic north pole?
Earths geographic North Pole is also currently a magnetic north pole. This is however not always the case because over geological time scales the Earth's magnetic poles flip as a result of changes of flow in Earth's molten core which produces Earth's magnetic field.
What component of Earths atmosphere exists entirely as a result of photosynthesis?
Oxygen is the component of Earth's atmosphere that exists entirely as a result of photosynthesis. Plants and other photosynthetic organisms convert carbon dioxide into oxygen during the process of photosynthesis.
A zone of weakness or a break in earths crust is known as?
This is known as a fault. A fault is a fracture in the Earth's crust along which movement has occurred. Movement along faults can result in earthquakes.
What is the immediate result of a sudden slippage of rocks within earths crust?
The immediate result of a sudden slippage of rocks within Earth's crust is an earthquake. This movement along faults causes seismic waves to propagate through the Earth, leading to shaking of the ground surface.
Lines of magnetic force generated by the fluid motions of earths core result in the formation?
North and South poles
The lines of magnetic force generated by the fluid motions of the earths core result in the formation of what?
the North Pole and the South Pole
What is one result of convection currents in earths outer core?
One result of convection currents in Earth's outer core is the generation of Earth's magnetic field. As the hot, molten iron in the outer core moves in a circular motion due to convection currents, it creates a dynamo effect that generates the magnetic field.
What are the causes of earths tilt?
It is the result of how the earth was formed.
The earths move as a result of?
Earth is held in elliptical orbit around the sun by gravity. It's motion can be thought of as due to a combination of gravity and inertia.
What phenomena result from earths rotation and revolutions?
Days and years.
What is the purpose of the earths crust?
The earth's crust does not have a purpose. It is a physical result.
What forms as a result of the water table meeting Earths surface?
a spring
What is a result in changes in solar energy that create day and night?
Earths tilt
What is the result of earths rotation?
An even distribution of sunlight.
Earths magnetic field results from movements in what?
The Earth's magnetic field results from electric currents in the mantle and outer core around the iron solid core; every electricmagnet is prduced as a result of electricity flowing around a iron core - the same principle works in our own magnetic field.
Shock waves that are felt on the earths surface as the result of faulting in the Earth's crust?
earthquakes :)
