Why does magma sometimes push through earth's surface and make a volcano?
because of pressure
Where and why do volcanoes occur?
Volcanoes occur when magma makes it way to the surface. The volcano begins as a lava flow but as it continues to erupt the volcano gets bigger. The volcano eruptions are determined by the pressure and density of the magma chamber.
What produces the forces that form volcanoes and cause earthquakes?
Volcanoes are formed when molten rock (magma) from within the Earth's mantle rises to the surface, creating pressure that leads to eruptions. Earthquakes occur when tectonic plates in the Earth's crust move or collide, releasing energy in the form of seismic waves.
What are the conditions that cause a volcanic eruption?
Volcanic eruptions are typically caused by the release of pressure from magma beneath the Earth's surface. This pressure can build up due to the accumulation of gases, the movement of tectonic plates, or the intrusion of new magma into a chamber already filled with magma. Additionally, factors such as the viscosity and gas content of the magma can also influence the explosivity of a volcanic eruption.
What causes magma to flow out of a weak spot in the earths crust?
Magma flows out of a weak spot in the Earth's crust due to the build-up of pressure from the molten rock beneath the surface. This pressure can result from the heat and movement of tectonic plates, creating pathways for magma to rise and eventually erupt onto the surface as lava.
How do covergent boundary plates affect earths surface?
The tectonic plates combined together
How do most mountains form?
when tectonic plates under the surface collide together and push up
What happens in high pressure?
air molecules are close together and pressure on Earth's surface
What is the origin of valcano?
Tectonic plates that make up the Earth's surface push together, forming a mountain. Magma that presides under the surface gradually eats a hole in the mountain, until it is a volcano. A volcano erupts when the pressure of the magma is too great, and the top explodes off the volcano.
How does plates affect the surface of the surface?
when tectonic plate collides with other tectonic plates or moves into another tectonic plate it affects surface in a way to create mountains. Like Himalayas are created when the indian tectonic plate collided with asian tectonic plate.
Why does magma sometimes push through earth's surface and make a volcano?
because of pressure
Does the surface of the earth change during an earthquake?
Because the rocks underground clash together and they are big rocks so it is going to shake and move
Does are come together or move apart in an area of surface low pressure?
Air always flows towards areas of low pressure - and away from high pressure.
What do tectonic plates do to the surface of the earth?
it happens by two of the tectonic plates colliding together and creating a volcanic eruption.And when they bash together and they have equal force they go up forming mountains (example) Mount. Everast (not in all occasions) or they could go down (example) The Dead Sea
What are 2 causes of earthquake?
earthquakes can be caused by either tectonic or volcanic. Tectonic earthquakes are caused by movement of tectonic plates underneath the earth surface. Volcanic earthquakes are caused by volcanic activities underneath or above earth's surface.
Can your give me a sentence using the words tectonic plates?
The tectonic plates slide together, causing an earthquake to erupt across the southern part of the state.
What forces below earth surface shape landforms?
The tectonic plates below earths surface shape earths landforms
