Pregunta
higher silica content
Pregunta 20
Pregunta
when gas is present in lava
Respuesta
-
the more viscose the lava, the harder it is for the gas to escape, the more explosive the eruption
-
the lowering of the pressure causes bubbles to form, pushing the magma up
-
it evaporates due to the high temperature
-
it creates a hot pocket of gas in the belly of the volcano
Pregunta 21
Pregunta
ways to melt plates
Pregunta 22
Pregunta
plumes rise from the __________________ because they're hotter
Respuesta
-
athenosphere
-
lithosphere
-
core-mantle boundary
-
mantle
Pregunta 23
Pregunta
effusive eruptions generally:
Pregunta 24
Pregunta 25
Pregunta 26
Pregunta
when decompression occurs
Respuesta
-
there is reduced pressure, which allows the atoms to vibrate more
-
it is at divergent plate boundaries
-
the decrease in pressure causes the lava to fill the now empty space
-
if the magma moves up fast it can melt as it there is less and less pressure keeping the atoms confined
-
it produces large amounts of new lithosphere
-
it is generally mafic magma which then creates basalt
Pregunta 27
Pregunta
when hydration melting occurs
Respuesta
-
it is at convergent plate boundaries
-
the water in the plate causes the plate to melt at lower temperatures
-
the water at high pressures helps to break the Si-O bonds
-
the geotherm is moved to the left
-
the solidus is moved to the left
Pregunta 28
Pregunta
subduction zone volcanism depends on
Respuesta
-
hydration
-
the angle of subduction
-
the plate boundary
-
the core mantle boundary
Pregunta 29
Pregunta
mainly___________ and ___________ erupt at convergent boundaries
Respuesta
-
andesite and rhyolite
-
andesite and basalt
-
basalt and rhyolite

Pregunta
islands arcs are behind the trench
Pregunta 31
Pregunta
A monopole is known to be possible
Pregunta 32
Pregunta
are these right?
Respuesta
-
inclination is degree from horizontal, intensity, declination is angle from true north
-
inclination is intensity, declination is degree from horizontal

Pregunta 33
Pregunta
the eart's magnetic field can't be driven by magnetic iron because
Respuesta
-
the high temperature's would surpass iron's curie temperature and it would lose it's magnetism
-
the temperature is too high
-
there is no magnetic field in the core to induce the atoms to align and create a magnetic field
Pregunta 34
Respuesta
-
converts mechanical energy into electrical energy
-
is what powers the earth's core
-
is found in the solar flares
-
is what changes the solidus' slope
Pregunta 35
Pregunta
dynamo depends on
Respuesta
-
speed
-
conductivity of metal
-
size

-
heat caused by the dynamo
Pregunta 37

gravity in the center of the earth is only dependent on the stuff directly beneath you because
Respuesta
-
there is more beneath you, but it's cancelled out by what's above
