What will happen if a seafloor plate collides with a continental plate?
When a seafloor plate collides with a continental plate, the denser seafloor plate will typically be subducted beneath the continental plate. This process can create deep ocean trenches, volcanic arcs, and earthquakes. It may also lead to the formation of mountain ranges on the continental plate.
What type of year do tornadoes happen?
Tornadoes can form any time of year but are more common in spring and early summer when warm, moist air collides with cold, dry air. This typically occurs in regions like Tornado Alley in the central United States.
What appears to happen as the ocean plate to the west collides with the continental plate to the east?
As the ocean plate to the west collides with the continental plate to the east, the denser oceanic plate is typically forced beneath the lighter continental plate in a process called subduction. This can lead to the formation of deep ocean trenches, volcanic arcs, and mountain ranges as geological activity increases. Additionally, earthquakes are common in these subduction zones due to the intense pressure and friction between the colliding plates. Over time, this interaction significantly shapes the geological landscape of the region.
What might happen to the mediterranean sea in 100 million years from now?
In 100 million years, tectonic movements could potentially close off the Mediterranean Sea as the African plate continues to move northward and potentially collides with the European plate. This could result in the sea gradually drying up due to the lack of a connection with the Atlantic Ocean.
What happen when a strong earthquake occur under the sea?
When a strong earthquake occurs under the sea, it can lead to a tsunami. The earthquake can cause the seafloor to uplift or subside, displacing a large amount of water that then generates massive waves. These tsunamis can travel long distances across the ocean and cause widespread devastation when they reach coastal areas.

What happen a train collides with ajeep?
What happens when a car collides with a beer can? Answer - the same thing.
Where does seafloor spreading happen?
along plate boundaries
What will happen to all human life when the world collides with the sun?
we will all turn into hotdogs
What must happen for the seafloor to spread apart?
Some other part of the crust must be "disappearing" (subduction).
What happen when a train collides with a jeepney?
If a train going at a high rate of speed collides with a vehicle, it will almost assuredly totally destroy the vehicle and kill the people in it. Though chances of survival are better when the train is going a slow speed, the devastation to the vehicle and occupants of the vehicle is still very likely to be grave.
What happen when a plate carrying oceanic crust collides with a plate carrying continental crust?
The contiental cdrust is forced under the continental crust in a process called subduction.
How fast does seafloor spread?
Seafloor spreading typically occurs at rates between 2.5 to 10 centimeters per year. However, in some places such as the East Pacific Rise, spreading can happen much faster, up to 15 centimeters per year.
What will happen if a car collides with another?
it depends which one has more mass. if they are the same, i think they bounce off each other, but if they are different the the bigger one crushes the smaller one and stuff
Could a supermassive black hole swallow your solar system?
It seems unlikely that this will occur before our Milky Way galaxy collides with Andromeda. Our solar system seems to be safely in orbit around the supermassive black hole in the center of the Milky Way, but in 4 billion years, when Andromeda (with its OWN supermassive black hole) collides with the Milky Way, it might possibly happen.
What can happen if one car driving North on green light while other car making left turn says he had the greelight and collide?
what can happen if car driving north on green going straightwhile other car making left claim that he had the green light to turn left and collides
What is the scoring decision if a batter hits a ground ball to shortstop with runners on second and third and the runner on second collides with the fielder as he is going to thisd base?
Its basically the same thing as being tagged. If he has the ball still in his possesion and the runner collides. Its an out. Same concept when a runner is running home and the catcher is attempting a tag out because they are off the plate. Collisions happen. But if the ball is in a glove... the collision is also considered an out.
