4.16 Lab Report – Evidence of Plate Motion
Complete the attached lab report – Evidence of Plate Motion
Investigation
In this experiment, you will use Google Earth to measure the distance between the volcanoes in the Hawaiian Islands and the volcano Kilauea and graph the distance between the volcanoes versus the age of the volcanoes to provide evidence of the past plate motions.
This is the question you are seeking to answer in your investigation:
How do the distance between the volcanoes and the age of the volcanoes in the Hawaiian Islands provide evidence of past plate motion?
As you work through the investigation, you should gather evidence to support your claim that answers the question.
