How does energy from earths interior cause changes to earths surface?

Energy from Earth's interior, in the form of heat, drives processes such as plate tectonics which cause volcanic eruptions, earthquakes, and the creation of mountains. The movement of molten rock in the mantle creates pressure that can result in geological activities like crustal uplift, faulting, and magma intrusions, leading to changes in the Earth's surface.


What are two ways the movement of earths plates changes the earths surface?

The movement of Earth's plates can create geological features like mountains and volcanoes through processes such as subduction and continental collision. It can also lead to earthquakes when plates shift along faults in the Earth's crust.


Is earths surface stable and stationary now?

No, Earth's surface is constantly changing due to processes like erosion, tectonic plate movement, volcanic activity, and weathering. However, these changes are usually gradual and not noticeable on human timescales.


How does energy in earths interior cause changes to earths surface?

The energy from the core of the earth causes currents in the molten layers, the way there are currents in the ocean. These currents are what causes the Tectonic Plates to move along the surface of the earth.


What are slow changes on earths surface?

Examples of slow changes on Earth's surface include weathering of rocks over time, erosion of land by water and wind, and gradual movement of tectonic plates. These processes can take thousands to millions of years to significantly alter the Earth's surface.

How is an earhquake started?

An earthquake is started when two plates (which lie under the Earths surface) rub together this creates movement which then sometimes pulls/pushes at the earths surface and creates giant cracks in the earths surface... and that is how an earthquake is started.
