What direction does the Krakatoa plates move?

The tectonic plates around Krakatoa, located in the Sunda Arc of Indonesia, primarily move in a northward and eastward direction due to the subduction of the Indo-Australian Plate beneath the Eurasian Plate. This movement contributes to volcanic activity in the region, including the eruptions of Krakatoa. Additionally, the complex interactions of the surrounding plates can lead to varying degrees of seismic activity. Overall, the area is characterized by significant tectonic dynamics.


What type of plates collide to form Krakatoa?

The Eurasian and the Indian Plates collided to make Krakatoa (also known as Krakatau) erupt


How did the plates which formed Krakatoa move?

There is a subduction zone under Krakatoa where the Indian Ocean seafloor is being pushed eastwards under Indonesia. (The Australian plate is moving under the Eurasian plate here.) When the seafloor is pushed into the earth it melts due to increases in pressure and temperature. The hot, melted seafloor material (now known as magma) rises up and creates volcanoes like Krakatoa.

What is the study of the way move plates?

Plate Tectonics


What are the way plates move?

crust mantle core


What do plates move apart on?

Plates move apart on divergent plate boundaries.


What directions do the plates move relative to one another at a divergent plate boundary?

they move away form each other, so what ever the direction the plates are the move the apposite direction away


Do all the tectonic plates move at the same rate?

No, tectonic plates move at different rates. Some plates move faster than others, while some plates move very slowly. The movement of the plates is driven by the underlying convection currents in the Earth's mantle.


What is Krakatoa in tagalog?

Just say Krakatoa. If a Filipino can think of an easier way to say a word they will, and that includes using other languages.


Do oceanic plates move?

the ocean plates move because of the movement of the the tectonic plates beneath the ocean and do to the motion of the oceans currents.


What are the general ways that plates interact?

One of the way is they move towards each other and converge,or collide
