What is newly formed hot forced upward that forms volcanic mountains?

Magma is newly formed hot molten rock that is forced upward from Earth's mantle through a vent or fissure in the crust. When this molten material reaches the surface, it solidifies and accumulates over time to form volcanic mountains.


Why do partly molten materials rise toward earths surface?

Magma is molten or partially molten rock beneath the earth's surface and is lighter than the surrounding rock so it tends to rise. As it moves upward, the magma encounters colder rock and begins to cool.

What happen to the crust when the molten rocks move upward?

When molten rocks move upward, they can break through the crust, creating volcanic eruptions and forming new landmasses. This process is part of plate tectonics where the movement of molten rock, or magma, plays a key role in shaping the Earth's surface.


What force causes warm molten rock to move upward to the mantle?

The driving force for the upward movement of warm molten rock in the mantle is primarily buoyancy. As molten rock is less dense than the surrounding solid rock, it rises due to its buoyancy forces. Additionally, convective currents within the mantle, driven by heat from Earth's core, also play a role in the movement of molten rock.
