Rock can melt at a depth of about what degree below Earth's surface?
100km
Where do rocks melt?
At depths of about 50 to 200 km below Earth's surface Rocks melt at depths at 50 and 200 km below the Earth's surface.
How does deposition change earth's surface because the to plats of the earth chrach together.?
when it drops materials the earths crust while slightly melt
What are two ways in which glaciers erode Earth's surface?
When glaciers form they scrape earth's surface as they advance. Also when glaciers melt it deposits the sediment it eroded from the land creating various land forms.
Once rock reaches a depth of about it may melt?
50 km
What depth below earths surface do you have to go before the pressure and temperature cause rocks to melt?
At depths of 50 to 200 km below Earth's surface rocks will melt.
Rock can melt at a depth of about what degree below Earth's surface?
100km
Where do rocks melt?
At depths of about 50 to 200 km below Earth's surface Rocks melt at depths at 50 and 200 km below the Earth's surface.
The ways Which extrusive and intrusive igneous rocks are formed?
extrusive- when melted rock material coools on earths surface instursive-when the melt cools below earths surface
To what depth below Earth's surface do you have to go before the pressure and temperature cause rocks to melt?
At depths between 50 to 200 km below Earth's surface, temperatures and friction, along with the presence of water, could cause melting of subducting crustal material. Rising currents of mantle rock could melt from decompression at shallower depths.
Rock can melt at a depth of about below Earth's surface.?
Rock can melt from 600- 1200C, depending on the type of rock, but this is assuming 1atm pressure. Under the earth, there are higher pressures, increasing the melting point. So although the rock should have melted by the mantle, which is 500-4000C and at a depth 35-2900km below the surface, it is a silly putty-like plastic solid rather than a liquid. The earth only becomes liquid at a depth of 2900km in the earth's outer core, but that is made of metal, not rock, so essentially, none of it.
How does ice change the earth surface?
it will over flood the earths surface with melt water of the ice berg and detroy land under sea level
Is. magma is melt rock that has come to the surface?
No! First of all, magma is below the surface and it is molten material.
Circular movement of heat below the earth's surface causes?
the core to melt
How can volcanoes cause melted rock?
Volcanoes do not cause rocks to melt, they are just the exit where melted rock come to the earths surface.
