Answer
Mountain building caused by a Convergent plate boundary between the colliding Indian and the Eurasian plates.
Explanation:
The country of India is located on the Indian Plate and is currently colliding with the Eurasian plate which is creating the Himalayan Mountain Range along with other structural geologic formations.
Convergent Plate Boundary's are the result of two plates colliding with each other this could be oceanic-continental, oceanic-oceanic, and continental-continental. The Indian and Eurasian plates are both continental, there is no subduction between the two plates so no volcanism is present in the area.
(On maps the Indo-Australian Plate is sometimes combined with the Indian Plate but they are widely considered separate).
Answer:
140 years is average duration of an earthquake.
Explanation:
- The Hayward fault is a geologic fault that is capable of massive destruction and is 119 km long fault western base of hills of San Francisco and is parallel to the San Andreas fault. The occurrence of an earthquake of 6.8 magnitudes in 1868 was biggest earthquake in California history.
- Recently various geologists have taken time interval of the past five large earthquakes and based on the past earthquakes data the interval of 140 years it will take to the formation of a large earthquake.
