When continental crust collides with the same crust it creates an earthquake, or sometime it can cause a volcano to explode. Including oceanic crust.
Continental rock is MUCH older than sediments in the sea (unless the sediments in the sea come from continental crust, in which case they would be the same age).
The oceans flow to the places where the crust is the lowest. Gravity causes them to flow downward. The mantle, below the crust, is at the same depth everywhere, so if the crust is lower, it is because it is thinner.
No, the Earth's crust is not the same around the world. It varies in thickness, composition, and age, with continental crust being thicker and less dense than oceanic crust. Additionally, geological processes such as plate tectonics, volcanic activity, and erosion create diverse landscapes and structures, leading to significant regional differences in the crust.
Yes, the denser oceanic crust of the seafloor will displace more mantle material compared to the same thickness of continental crust due to its higher density. This is because the thicker, less dense continental crust floats higher on the mantle compared to the thinner, denser oceanic crust.
Continental crust is generally thicker and less dense than oceanic crust, which is denser and thinner. When continental crust is added or displaced, it exerts less force on the underlying mantle due to its buoyancy, resulting in less mantle displacement. In contrast, the denser oceanic crust displaces more mantle when submerged or altered, leading to a greater effect on the mantle beneath it. This difference in density and buoyancy explains why the same thickness of continental crust displaces less mantle than oceanic crust.
What happens when a car collides with a beer can? Answer - the same thing.

Unfortunately, trains collide with motor vehicles every day. These collisions often result in fatalities. The same result would occur in a collision with a Jeepney.

The amount of crust present on Earth always stays the same. The amount of crust descending into the mantle is balanced by the amount of crust formed at mid-ocean ridges.
yes the momentum of it is the same because P initial = P final ALWAYS!
the lithosphere and the crust of the earth are the same lithosphere is another word for crust so the thickest is both of them.
Doughnuts do not have crust like bread does, however you could argue that the outside of a doughnut is the crust, but it is the same as the rest of the doughnut.
Destructive interference occurs when the trough of one wave collides with the crest of another identical wave at the same time and place. This results in the amplitudes subtracting from each other, creating a smaller resultant wave or canceling each other out completely.
A line on a map that denotes crust that formed at the same time is called an isochron. These lines are used in geology to represent areas where rock layers have the same age or formed during the same period of time. By analyzing isochrons, geologists can better understand the history and evolution of the Earth's crust.
