2016年6月26日 · The mid-Atlantic ridge that is slowly pushing North America away from Europe. The mid-Atlantic ridge lies mostly in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean and is the classic example of a divergent plate boundary. This tells us that a couple of large mantel plumes are at work below the Earth's surface and these are gradually pulling the crust apart. It is where the ancient …

2018年1月28日 · divergent plate boundaries are where convections current move upwards, and separate the plates. At divergent boundaries new crustal material is brought to the surface. As the convection current comes to the surface it also moves outward in both directions (see image below). This causes the crust to separate into two different pieces. An example of a divergent …

2023年8月10日 · Examples of a divergent boundary would be a mid-ocean ridge. Two plates are pulling apart from each other. If you have heard before, the magma from the asthenosphere find a way to get out through ...

Examples of horizontal lines in the real world include the horizon where the sky meets the land or sea, the straight line of a calm lake's surface, the boundary between the wall and floor in a ...

2020年10月15日 · An example of a divergent boundary is the mid Atlantic Ridge (there are mid ocean ridges in the Indian, and Pacific Oceans as well). The Mid Atlantic Ridge creates volcanos where the hot magma erupts from the underlining mantle. ... The Rift Valley in East Africa is the result of a divergent boundary.

2020年10月18日 · Examples of Divergent Boundaries The mid-Atlantic ridge is an example of a divergent boundary, where the Eurasian Plate that covers all of Europe separates from the North American Plate. This underwater mountain range is constantly growing as new crust is formed.

Divergent Boundary is formed when two tectonic plates move apart from each other creating tension. Molten rocks called magma to rise from the Earth's mantle to the surface. The Earth's surface is cool enough L to solidify the magma that rose, thus, creating new oceanic crust or seafloor. A divergent boundary is also known as a constructive ...

2024年5月29日 · The East African Rift Valley is an example of a divergent plate boundary on land. It is where the African Plate is splitting apart, causing the formation of a rift valley with significant volcanic ...

2016年3月24日 · A boundary is a place between two plates and plates are classified relative to their motion with respect to each other into convergent divergent and transform boundaries. Divergent Boundary is a type of boundary between two plates where they divert or move away from each .You can assume it by saying that one is going towards right side and other is going …

2023年8月9日 · A divergent boundary forms when tectonic plates pull apart. As the plates move away from each other, magma rises up to create new crust, resulting in features like mid-ocean ridges or rift valleys ...
