What else can I help you with?
Does lithospheric move slowly or fast?
The lithosphere moves slowly, at a rate of a few centimeters per year. This movement is driven by the slow flow of the underlying mantle in a process called plate tectonics. The movement of lithospheric plates is responsible for natural phenomena like earthquakes and the formation of mountains.
Is Earth's mantle is flexible and shifts under heavy loads?
Yes, it is a solid with the uncommon characteristic of plasticity. It is a solid with the ability to flow like a liquid, but the mantle moves slowly. If you could kick it, you would stub your toe.
The part of earths outer layer that move are called?
The part of Earth's outer layer that moves are called tectonic plates. These plates float on the semi-fluid layer of the mantle and interact with each other at plate boundaries, causing geological events like earthquakes and volcanic eruptions.
What layer moves underneath the techtonic plates?
The aesthenosphere, which is located in the top part of the Earth's mantle is the layer lying underneath the tectonic plates. Collective movement in these plates cause a gradual rise in the aesthenosphere, thereby resulting to land elevation.
What is the mechanical layer of earths that is solid rock and moves the least?
mesosphere
What moves on a plasticlike layer of the mantle?
The crust moves on a plastic like layer of the mantle.
What moves a plasticlike layer of the mantle?
The crust moves on a plastic like layer of the mantle.
What sections moves on a plasticlike layer of the mantle?
The lithosphere, which includes the crust and uppermost part of the mantle, moves on a plastic-like layer of the mantle called the asthenosphere. This layer is partially molten and allows the lithospheric plates to move slowly over time due to convection currents.
What layer of earth moves the crust?
moho barrier?
Why can we not feel the earth's movement?
because the earth moves slowly and at the same speed as us
What is a stratospohere?
The stratosphere is a layer of Earth's atmosphere. The stratosphere is the second layer, as one moves upward from Earth's surface, of the atmosphere.
What part of earth moves around a special layer of the mantle?
The answer is Lithosphere!!!
What layer of earth is a solid that moves like a liquid?
soler system
Why when the earth spins you do not feel it?
i think this is so because the earth moves slowly. (the earth rotate and revolve at the same time.
What part of earth is solid but stil moves and flows slowly?
The Earth's mantle is a solid layer beneath the crust that moves and flows slowly over the long term, causing tectonic plate movements. This slow movement is due to the high temperatures and pressures within the mantle, which allow the solid rock to deform and flow over time.
Does lithospheric move slowly or fast?
The lithosphere moves slowly, at a rate of a few centimeters per year. This movement is driven by the slow flow of the underlying mantle in a process called plate tectonics. The movement of lithospheric plates is responsible for natural phenomena like earthquakes and the formation of mountains.
Which creatures moves slowly?
A slug moves slowly and so does a snail
