Why seafloor spreading is like a moving conveyor belt?

Seafloor spreading occurs at mid-ocean ridges where new oceanic crust is formed. As magma rises and solidifies at the ridge, it pushes the existing crust outward on both sides, similar to how a conveyor belt moves material forward. This process of crust formation and spreading creates a continuous cycle of oceanic crust creation and movement, resembling the motion of a conveyor belt.


Why is the hypothesis of seafloor spreading like a conveyor belt?

The hypothesis of seafloor spreading is likened to a conveyor belt because new oceanic crust is continuously formed at mid-ocean ridges, moves away in opposite directions, and eventually subducts back into the mantle at deep-sea trenches. This process is similar to how a conveyor belt moves material in one direction while continually creating and discarding it at different points.

If a conveyor belt is moving at 100 mph, and a person is on the conveyor belt and running in the same direction at what would be 20 mph off the belt, how fast is the person going I would appreciate it if a formula and explanation is provided?

The person on the conveyor belt is moving at 120 mph relative to the ground. This is because the person is running at 20 mph relative to the conveyor belt, and the conveyor belt is moving at 100 mph relative to the ground. Therefore, the person's total speed is the speed of the conveyor belt (100 mph) plus the speed of the person relative to the conveyor belt (20 mph), giving a total speed of 120 mph.
