The oceanic Pacific plate and the oceanic Juan de Fuca plate are diverging. Which landform would you expect to form?
vfiekz [6]

Answer:

The landform that will form is a mid-ocean ridge.

Explanation:

When tectonic plates move away from each other they form a divergent plate boundary. At this type of boundary, as the plates move away, a gap starts to open up gradually. This gap becomes wider and wider over time and the crust is made much less thick, which in turn presents a good opportunity for the magma to come out on the surface.

Because the crust is weaker and thinner, the magma manages to rise through it and rich the surface relatively easily. As it does, the magma reaching the surface, or rather the bottom of the ocean, it solidifies in the water and as more and more magma comes out it piles up. By piling up and constantly creating new rock an underwater mountain chain starts to form and this type of mountain chain is known as a mid-ocean ridge.

The typical time interval between sunrise and sunset will be 50 hours.

<h3>What is earth rotation?</h3>

The rotation of the planet Earth around its own axis and variations in the orientation of the rotation axis in space are referred to as Earth's orbit or Earth's spin. Earth rotates prograde in an easterly direction. The Earth rotates counterclockwise when viewed from the northern polar star Polaris. The Northern Hemisphere's North Pole, sometimes referred to as the Geographic North Pole or Terrestrial North Pole, is where the Earth's axis of rotation and surface meet. The North Magnetic Pole of the Earth is distinct from this place. The other location where the axis of rotation of Earth crosses the surface is the South Pole, which is located in Antarctica. The Earth revolves once every 24 hours or so in relation to the Sun, but only once every 23 hours, 56 minutes, and 4 seconds in relation to other far-off stars.
