Questão
when gas is present in lava
Responda
-
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
Questão 21
Questão
ways to melt plates
Questão 22
Questão
plumes rise from the __________________ because they're hotter
Responda
-
athenosphere
-
lithosphere
-
core-mantle boundary
-
mantle
Questão 23
Questão
effusive eruptions generally:
Questão 24
Questão 25
Questão 26
Questão
when decompression occurs
Responda
-
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
Questão 27
Questão
when hydration melting occurs
Responda
-
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
Questão 28
Questão
subduction zone volcanism depends on
Responda
-
hydration
-
the angle of subduction
-
the plate boundary
-
the core mantle boundary
Questão 29
Questão
mainly___________ and ___________ erupt at convergent boundaries
Responda
-
andesite and rhyolite
-
andesite and basalt
-
basalt and rhyolite
Questão 30
Questão
islands arcs are behind the trench
Questão 31
Questão
A monopole is known to be possible
Questão 32
Responda
-
inclination is degree from horizontal, intensity, declination is angle from true north
-
inclination is intensity, declination is degree from horizontal
-

Questão 33
Questão
the eart's magnetic field can't be driven by magnetic iron because
Responda
-
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
Questão 34
Responda

is what powers the earth's core
-
is found in the solar flares
-
is what changes the solidus' slope

-
there is more beneath you, but it's cancelled out by what's above
