Questions:
- What is the distance to the Suiko Seamount to the KokoSeamount, in km? What is the difference between their ages? Whathas been the rate of movement of this region of the Pacific plate,in cm/yr over this time frame?
- What has been the rate of movement for the Pacific platebetween the Abbott Seamount and Lo’ihi in cm/yr?
- What has been the rate of movement for the Pacific platebetween the Suiko Seamount and Lo’ihi in cm/yr? You should measurethe distance between the Suiko Seamount and the Daikakuji Seamountand then measure the distance between the Daikakuji Seamount andLo’ihi and add them together for the total distance.
- Has the rate of movement of the Pacific plate been constantover the lifetime of the Hawaiian-Emperor island chain? Whichsection has been moving faster?
- The oldest rocks that make up Lo’ihi is an estimated 400,000years old. Using the rate of plate movement that you calculated inquestion #2, how far has it traveled in km since its first lavacooled? Hint: you need to rearrange the rate formula to determinedistance and then convert cm to km. Rate=distance/time so distance=rate x time.
