Suppose you are studying the motion of one of earths plates what units would you probably use to describe its speed?

You would likely use centimeters per year (cm/yr) or millimeters per year (mm/yr) to describe the speed of Earth's tectonic plates as they move along plate boundaries. These units are commonly used in geology to measure the rate at which plates are moving relative to each other.


What tectonic plates are in Maryland?

Tectonic plates are great sheets of rock covering the surface of the planet, floating on the slowly flowing, hot mantle. While they have depth and therefore could be measured as a volume, this is not common. You'd most-likely measure a tectonic plate's area in square units such as kilometres squared. Their rates of movement with respect to one another are measured in kilometres per year (for present day measurements) and kilometres per millions of years for distant-past measurements.

A tectonic plate could be described as a huge block of Earth's crust. For more information, please see the related link.


What do plate teconics refer to?

What unit of measurement is used to measure the movement of the plates?

The movement of plates is measured in units of distance, typically using centimeters (cm) or millimeters (mm). It is measured using techniques such as GPS (Global Positioning System) or satellite-based radar interferometry.
