What are agate slabs?
Agate slabs are slices of agate gemstone that have been cut into thin, flat pieces. These slabs often showcase the unique patterns and colors of agate, making them popular for use in jewelry making, home decor, and other creative projects. Agate slabs are valued for their beauty and can vary widely in size and color.
What happens at spreading boundaries?
At spreading boundaries, tectonic plates move apart, creating new crust as magma rises from the mantle and solidifies. This process allows for the seafloor to spread and expand as new material is added, resulting in the formation of mid-ocean ridges.
What do you call the moving irregularly shaped slabs that make up the earths lithosphere?
Tectonic plates are the moving irregularly shaped slabs that make up the Earth's lithosphere. These plates constantly shift and interact with each other, leading to phenomena such as earthquakes and volcanic activity.
Earths lithosphere is broken into huge moving slabs of rock driven by motions in the mantle?
These slabs, known as tectonic plates, interact at plate boundaries leading to various geological phenomena such as earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, and mountain formation. The movement of these plates is a result of the convection currents in the semi-fluid asthenosphere below.
What is the slab of the earths crust that regularly moves away from or collides with other slabs called?
The slab of the Earth's crust that regularly moves away from or collides with other slabs is called a tectonic plate. These plates make up the Earth's lithosphere and their movement is responsible for processes such as earthquakes and mountain formation.
Stone slabs are stronger under compression or tension?
Stone slabs are stronger under compression than tension. This is because most stone materials are able to withstand higher forces when being compressed rather than being pulled apart. Stress is distributed more evenly and effectively in compression, making stone slabs less likely to fail compared to tension.
What is a break in the crust where slabs slip past each other called?
There are breaks in the Earth's crust where slabs of rock slip past each other. These places are called fault lines.

What were bacon slabs called before slabs?
bacon.
Are earthquakes associated with plate boundaries?
Yes, earthquakes are commonly associated with plate boundaries where tectonic plates interact. The movement of these plates, whether colliding, sliding past each other, or moving apart, can generate seismic activity that causes earthquakes.
What are non-suspended slabs?
Non suspended concrete slabs sit on the ground directly. They are different from suspended slabs because suspended slabs are above the ground and are supported by beams.
A builder uses slabs 60cmx60cm drive 4 slabs wide and 7.2 m long how many slabs used?

How many 450mm x 450mm garden slabs do you need for garden area of 21ft x 19ft?
The answer will vary slightly depending on assumptions: will the slabs have a space between them, and will you be cutting the slabs to fill fractions. 21 feet is equal to 14.2 of the 450 mm slabs. 19 feet is equal to 12.9 of the slabs. To complete the rectangular area, 14.2 x 12.9 = 183 slabs.
When digging trench found two slabs of stone with a 30MM gap between them which went down for 7 meters why was this?
A hole appeared when I was digging a trench for a wall. After clearing the hole I found there to be two very large slabs of stone about 30mm apart. I pushed a tape measure down between the stone slabs and it went down to beyond 7 metres. This was in Herefordshire, England. Can anyone explain what I had found and how was it produced? Kind regards, Steve.
