What is the term used to describe the rate of an object's movement?
The term used to describe the rate of an object's movement is speed or velocity. Velocity is the same as speed but also measures direction.
How would you describe the role of the skeleton in body movement?
eyes
What is the term used to describe the rate of an objects movement?
velocity
Describe the movement of the particles in a solid?
They are tightly packed and vibrate.
How does tension change the shape of earths crust?
by pulling it making it thinner in the middle
What builds volcanoes?
When lava goes threw crust it forms a hotspot (valcano)
Why are craters aligned in Hawaii?
Craters in Hawaii are aligned due to the movement of the Pacific tectonic plate over a stationary volcanic hotspot beneath the Earth's crust. As the plate slowly moves, new volcanoes form over the hotspot, creating a linear chain of volcanic structures. This movement results in aligned craters and volcanic features across the Hawaiian Islands.
What hotspot is mauna loa on?
Mauna Loa is on a hotspot known as the Hawaiian hotspot. This hotspot is responsible for the formation of the Hawaiian Islands, including Mauna Loa, due to the movement of the Pacific tectonic plate over a stationary mantle plume.
Which movement of the Earths crust implies that the continental crust is less dense than the oceanic crust?
Plate tectonic movement and subduction zones.
What is an Earth's hotspot?
A place where hot mantle material rises in a semi-permanent plume, and affects the overlying crust.
What is a hotspot in a volcano?
A place where hot mantle material rises in a semi-permanent plume, and affects the overlying crust.
What are plate movement?
the movement of earths plates or crust
The movement of magma through the Earth's crust is known as?
The movement of magma through the Earth's crust is known as intrusion.
What do you call the sudden movement of the Earth's crust?
The sudden movement of the earth's crust is called and earthquake
What is the cause of the Mauna Loa?
Mauna Loa is caused by hotspot volcanism, where a mantle plume creates a hotspot beneath the Earth's crust, leading to the formation of a volcano. As the Pacific tectonic plate moves over the hotspot, new lava erupts through the surface, gradually building the shield volcano that is Mauna Loa on the Big Island of Hawaii.
How does the movement of the crust along a thrust fault differ from that along a normal fault?
The movement of the crust along a thrust fault is usually a reverse movement unlike the movement along a normal fault.
How does the movement of the crust along a thrust fault differ from that along the normal fault?
