What are the three lines of evidence for Plate Tectonics?
The three lines of evidence for Plate Tectonics are: 1) the distribution of earthquakes and volcanoes along plate boundaries, 2) the matching shapes of continents on opposite sides of the Atlantic Ocean, known as continental drift, and 3) the patterns of magnetic striping on the ocean floor that provide evidence of seafloor spreading.
How many types of motion of earth?
There are so many types of motion. 10 of them are periodic motion, rolling motion, projectile motion, simple harmonic motion, rotational motion, circular motion, curvilinear motion, Oscillation, Brownian motion, and rectilinear motion.
What is the meaning of plate boundry?
Plate boundaries, essentially, are the areas where two lithospheric plates meet. When this happens, one of three things can happen. Plates can move apart from each other, creating divergent boundaries. Plates can collide together, created convergent boundaries. Or plates can rub against each other in a parallel motion, created transform fault boundaries. Divergent boundaries, usually between two oceanic plates, creates an upswelling of magma from the lithosphere. Convergent boundaries, usually between oceanic and continental plates, causes the oceanic plate to subduct underneath the continental plate, leading to the destruction of seafloor. Transform fault boundaries neither destroy nor create lithosphere.
What are the three types of plate boundries?
The three types of plate boundaries are divergent boundaries, where plates move away from each other; convergent boundaries, where plates move towards each other; and transform boundaries, where plates slide past each other horizontally.
Give examples of where the three types of plate movements occur?
Divergent plate boundary: The Mid-Atlantic Ridge where the Eurasian Plate and North American Plate are moving apart. Convergent plate boundary: The Andes Mountains where the South American Plate is colliding with the Nazca Plate. Transform plate boundary: The San Andreas Fault in California where the Pacific Plate and North American Plate are sliding past each other.
What are three plate motions that can cause earthquakes?
Any and all plate motion causes earthquakes.
Describe the three types of plate motion and the faults that are characteristic of each type of motion?
Describe the three types of plate motion and the faults that are characteristic of each type of motion.
How does gravity relates to newtons 3 las of motion?
Newton's three laws of motion describe how forces affect motion. They have nothing to do with gravity, except that gravity is one of many possible causes of force.
What are the three types of plate boundaries and what types of faults occur there?
a. Transform:transform boundaries or motion creates strike-slip faults.b. Convergent:convergent boundaries or motion creates reverse faults.c. Divergent:divergent motion creates a normal fault.
Describe the three types of plate motion and the faults that are characteristic of each motion?
One of the three types of plates are the transform plates slip past each other. The convergent plates push together. The divergent plates pull away from each other.
Describe the three types of plate motion and the faults that are characteristics of each motion?
One of the three types of plates are the transform plates slip past each other. The convergent plates push together. The divergent plates pull away from each other.
What are the three types of plate motion and the faults that are characteristic of each motion?
convergent plates produce thrust faults divergent plates form normal faults transform plates form strike/slip faults
What are three types of plate bounderys?
the three types of plate boundaries are : -convergent plate boundaries -divergent plate boundaries -transformed plate boundaries
What are three types of bounderies?
the three types of plate boundaries are : -convergent plate boundaries -divergent plate boundaries -transformed plate boundaries
What are the three forces that drive plate motion?
The three forces that drive plate motion are mantle convection, ridge push, and slab pull. Mantle convection involves the movement of material in the Earth's mantle, while ridge push is the force exerted by the elevated mid-ocean ridges. Slab pull is the force generated by the sinking of cold, dense oceanic lithosphere into the mantle at subduction zones.
How does motion relates to the three laws of motion?
Motion is already involves in motion because the motion is motion
How did Newton use the scientific method?
BY DISCOVERING THE FORCE OF GRAVITY AND ALSO MADE THE THREE LAWS OF MOTION
