If you do not show water but show only plates ,how it looks? and how it can split? whether there were plates at that time? If not whole earth would be a single plate.<br /> In that case for pangaea to split ,the splitting line should be all along the periphery of Earth and not shown generally as up to Pengaea boundry onlyAMIThttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11156510982882875208noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33253361.post-49048101601651768402010-04-03T02:13:14.559-07:002010-04-03T02:13:14.559-07:00hi

The ocean crust was thinner than continent crust,it should break first<br />c) was the continent splitting force there,while super continent was formed or it came later? If it was there earlier it would not allow the continent to form there in the first place.<br />If it came later ,how and from where?<br />c)where did the super ocean crust gone? subduction?<br />d)unless there are divergent plates<br />no new plates are formed,hence convergent plate boundries must be equaly old.Thus must have nearly same density. How than,one plate slides over other to form subduction zone?AMIThttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11156510982882875208noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33253361.post-27810370060917517132010-04-01T09:21:06.354-07:002010-04-01T09:21:06.354-07:00Roger

Oceans have comparatively less fluid than what is inside the earth.<br /> Is it not possible that,we have not understood the Gravitational pull and that it must also be acting in some other dimension not known to us? or the dimension in which we have no measurements?<br />regards <br /> AmitAMIThttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11156510982882875208noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33253361.post-20898601326233028382010-03-22T21:40:54.282-07:002010-03-22T21:40:54.282-07:00Amit;

There is no simple answer to your question,...Amit;<br /><br />There is no simple answer to your question, since every part of a fault is different. But the energy of a quake is a measure of the force required to move that part of the plate.<br /><br />The link is to an applet that will show you that energy.<br /><br />http://home.att.net/~srschmitt/script_earthquake.html<br /><br />The force required to move the whole plate would be much greater.<br /><br />By comparison, the force of a distant planet is infinitely smaller.<br /><br />RogerRoger Hunterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03159156315266044017noreply@blogger.com
