Which tectonic plates are located along the Prime Meridian?
The tectonic plates located along the Prime Meridian are the Eurasian Plate and the African Plate.
An earthquake zone is likely to be along?
An earthquake zone is likely to be along fault lines or where two or more tectonic plates meet or a chain of volcanoes parallel to a continental coast.
How many tectonic plates are located in Bali?
Bali is located on two tectonic plates, the Australian Plate and the Eurasian Plate. These plates interact along the Sunda Megathrust, which can result in seismic activity in the region.
If the asthenosphere cooled and stopped flowing how would you expect the movement of tectonic plates in the lithosphere to change Tectonic plates would?
If the asthenosphere stopped flowing due to cooling, tectonic plate movement in the lithosphere would likely slow down or even halt. The asthenosphere's convection currents drive the movement of tectonic plates by dragging them along as they flow. Without this driving force, the movement of tectonic plates would be significantly impacted, leading to reduced or stagnant plate motion.
What tectonic plates were involved in the eyjafjallajokull eruption?
The Eyjafjallajökull eruption in 2010 involved the Eurasian and North American tectonic plates in Iceland. The volcano is located along the Mid-Atlantic Ridge, where these two plates are diverging.
Which tectonic plates are located along the Prime Meridian?
The tectonic plates located along the Prime Meridian are the Eurasian Plate and the African Plate.
An earthquake zone is likely to be along?
An earthquake zone is likely to be along fault lines or where two or more tectonic plates meet or a chain of volcanoes parallel to a continental coast.
Earthquakes occur most often along the?
Earthquakes occur most often along the boundaries of tectonic plates.
What are the different pieces of the Earth's crust called?
Along with their attached rigid uppermost mantle, they are referred to as tectonic plates.
What typically occurs along boundaries of tectonic plates?
earthquakes
What does it mean when tectonic plates slip?
Shifting,sliding,diverging ,converging etc . of tectonic plates.
How many tectonic plates are located in Bali?
Bali is located on two tectonic plates, the Australian Plate and the Eurasian Plate. These plates interact along the Sunda Megathrust, which can result in seismic activity in the region.
Where are active volcano's most likely to form?
along the pacific ring of fire or any similar region where two tectonic plates are colliding.
Why do earthquakes mostly happen along tectonic plates boundaries?
Earthquakes mostly happen along tectonic plate boundaries because these are where the plates interact and their movements cause stress to build up in the Earth's crust. When this stress is released suddenly, it causes the ground to shake, resulting in an earthquake. These boundaries are also where faults are more likely to occur, further increasing the likelihood of earthquakes.
Do earthquakes and volcanoes appear worldwide?
Yes but there are areas that it is much more likely to happen and areas it is not likely to happen. Of course this is because of tectonic plates and when they shift and in what direction they bump into each other. The earthquakes and volcanoes are more likely to happen along the Ring of Fire which shows where the tectonic plates are. It is a bit hard to explain though. My final answer is no it is not impossible but in some spots it is very unlikley, in others it is more likley. If you want to learn more, try searching tectonic plates in wikipedia or google.
What happened to rocks as fossils as the tectonic plates separated and drifted apart?
They were carried along with the plates to new locations.
Why earthquakes in Italy?
As it is along a fault line (gap between tectonic plates)
