Which metamorphic rock forms under the highest temperature and highest pressure?
tankabanditka [31]

Answer: Gneiss

Explanation: Gneiss is a metamorphic rock formed from shale at very high temperature and pressure condition. They exhibit a preferred alignment or orientation of platy minerals called foliation. They are coarse grained and exhibit gneissose banding. They are formed from highest grade regional metamorphism with temperature between 450 - 600 degree celcius and pressure between 800 - 1000 mega pascal. They generally occur in cores of fold mountain belts where mountain ranges have been eroded.

Density is a key component in the behavior of Earth materials and is especially important in understanding important aspects of
jeka57 [31]

Answer:

Density is one of the most factors that play a key role in plate tectonic activities. Some of the ways in which density is important in the field of plate tectonics are as follows-

  • The convergent plate boundaries are responsible for the creation of a subduction zone, where the high-density lithospheric plate subducts below the less dense one. It is because the heavier plate is comprised of heavy minerals thereby forming heavier rocks as a result of which its density increases. Due to these differences in density, there occurs a subduction zone.
  • The divergent plate boundary forms where two plates move away from one another. This type of plate motion is responsible for the eruption of magma on the seafloor. As the plates diverge, the lithosphere becomes eventually thin, and with more progressive spreading, the magma comes out to the seafloor. This is because the hot magma is less dense, and forms convection cells as they rise upward. This is how the density helps in the upwelling of magma at the mid-oceanic ridge in a divergent plate boundary.
  • When there collide two plates of equal densities, then it gives rise to the formation of huge mountains, because neither of them is heavy to get sink. So it uplifts the crust, forming a sandwich-type pattern.

How do we know that the centre of the earth is hot as we have never been down to the core?
lozanna [386]

The Earth has a crust, mantle, outer core and the inner core with each one getting hotter than the next. How come, over millions and millions of years, the heat that is at the center of the Earth hasn't conducted throughout the planet's material so that the entire planet is one even temperature?

This always bothered me because we all learn that temperature diffuses from high areas to low areas, yet the Earth's center is super hot while if you dig a one foot hole, the ground feels quite cold.
