If a tectonic plate moves 4 cm per year how many kilometers would it move in 1 million years?
100000/3 years, or approximately 33,333.33 years 1 km = 1000 m and 1 m = 100 cm, so 1 km=1000 m = 100000 cm Distance=rate*time, so time=distance/rate. time= 100000 cm/(3 cm/yr)=100000/3 years, or approximately 33,333.33 years
Why Indonesia has the most volcanoes?
Because Indonesia is located on the rim of two tectonic plates: the Indian and Asian plates. The Indian plate is moving northward pushing against the Asian plate. Part of the Indian plate plunged into the earth and part of the Asian plate move upward and forming the Himalayan Mountain.
If a plate moves 2 cm year How far it will move in 1000 years?
If a plate moves 2 cm per year, over 1000 years it will move a total of 2000 cm. This is calculated by multiplying the annual movement (2 cm) by the number of years (1000). Therefore, in 1000 years, the plate will move 20 meters.
Can scientists predict the weather and climate in 1000 years?
No, they cannot.
Is Mount Humphreys a volcano?
They say that it was a Super Valcano in pre-historic days(dinosaurs). It is the largest Mountain the state of Arizona. DO not be frightned though because it has been dormant for 1000's of years.
In what direction do tectonic plates go?
Tectonic plates move from east to west as a whole due to the coreolis (not sure of spelling) effect.
How far will the tectonic plates move in 1000 years?
Well, if the plates drift 5-10 cm per year, that means the plates would've shifted about 5-10 km which isn't a massive change, to be honest. The big changes would only be seen after millions of years.
How do mountains become mountains?
Mountains are formed through tectonic processes, such as the collision of tectonic plates or the uplifting of the Earth's crust. This can result in the folding, faulting, and uplifting of the land, creating the distinctive features of mountains over millions of years. Erosion and weathering also play a role in shaping and sculpting mountains into their final form.
How far does the continent move in the first 1000 years?
Continental movement, due to tectonic plate dynamics, occurs at an average rate of about 2 to 5 centimeters per year. Over the course of 1000 years, this would translate to a movement of approximately 20 to 50 meters. However, this distance can vary depending on specific geological conditions and the particular tectonic plates involved.
When will japan reach edge of tectonic plate?
No one knows maybe 1000 years or five hundred years
Will earth's landforms look the same 1000 years from now?
It is unlikely that Earth's landforms will look exactly the same in 1000 years due to natural processes like erosion, tectonic activity, and climate change. These processes continually shape and change the planet's surface over long periods of time.
How long is a millennium?
A millennium is one thousand (1000) years.
How many of the plates on the map consist entirely of ocean floor?
1000
What is 1000 years -1020 years old?
1000 years -1020 years old = -20
How many centuries is 1000 years?
A millennium is 1000 years. A century is 100 years. So a millennium (1000 years) is equal to 10 centuries.
What does 1000 years equal to?
1000 years is a millenium.
A decade is 10 years What is 1000 years called?
1000 years is called a millenium.
