If a piece of sea floor has moved 50 km in 5 million years what is the yearly rate of sea-floor motion?
To calculate the yearly rate of sea-floor motion, we divide the total distance moved (50 km) by the total time taken (5 million years). 50 km / 5,000,000 years = 0.00001 km per year Therefore, the yearly rate of sea-floor motion is 0.00001 km/year.
What plates caused Eyjafjallajökull to erupt?

How has the earths plates shaped Canada in many ways?
There are many tectonic plates. Canada is on the North American plate. This plate meets the Pacific plate and the much smaller Juan de Fuca plate on the west side. The Juan de Fuca plate is moving toward the North American Plate and being subducted beneath it. This has created the volcanoes near the west coast of Canada, part of the Ring of Fire. About 225 million years ago, all the continents were together as one supercontinent, Pangaea. As the tectonic plates moved apart, it separated into two supercontinents, Laurasia and Gondwanaland. As the plates continued to move, we eventually came to the arrangement of continents that we currently have. Canada, as part of the North American plate, moved with it to its current position. The plates are continuing to move and eventually another supercontinent will form
Where will the western part of California be in 100 million years?
In 100 million years, the western part of California will likely have moved further northwards due to the ongoing tectonic movement of the Pacific Plate. This movement is part of the natural process of plate tectonics, which shapes the Earth's surface over millions of years.
If the north American plate moves at an average rate of 3 cm per year what distance has it moved over the last 50 million years?
3 cm/y X 50x106 years = 150,000,000 cm (1,500 km).
How long would it take to get 3500 kilometers if you moved 3.5 centimeters in a year?
It would take 1 billion years to travel 3500 kilometers if you were moving at a rate of 3.5 centimeters per year. This is found by converting the kilometers to centimeters to match the speed you're traveling.
