Pregunta
Why do we use the alignment of magnetic rocks to know how old a plate is?
Respuesta
  • The older rock that's aligned with our current magnetic field
  • The newer rock that's aligned with our ancient magnetic field

Pregunta 3

Pregunta
If you look at magnetite which is close to the mid-ocean ridge. What do you expect about its alignment?
Respuesta
  • They're aligned in a way that you would expect with the current magnetic field
  • They're aligned in a way that you would not expect with the current magnetic field
  • They're aligned in a way that you would expect with the ancient magnetic field

Pregunta 4

Pregunta
And what about if magnetite is further?
Respuesta
  • You have circles of other magnetic rock that is going in the opposite direction
  • You have stripes of other magmatic rock that is going in the same direction
  • You have stripes of other magnetic rock that is going in the opposite direction

Pregunta 5

Pregunta
Why this magnetic stripes pattern is an evidence of plate movement?
Respuesta
  • Wegener discovered them
  • The rift has had to move apart
