centimeters per year when you have a sudden movement of plates along its fault you get an earthquake when plates move under another plate you get a volcanic eruption but without the earth being round in the center of the earth to be molten hot there wouldn't be plate movements which in turn means there wouldn't be volcanoes or earthquakes so you're wrong these two natural disasters go hand in hand with currently accepted signs of the shape of the earth unless you want to take a jab at explaining how plates move on the flat earth having said that the prevailing theory for the cause of earthquakes actually makes more sense on a planer earth than a spherical one okay so you're not going to explain how plates move on a flat earth but instead you're going to try to use this to undermine the globe earth gotcha plate tectonics theory holds that large adjacent grinding plates of land build up friction until one fault plane slips under the other causing an earthquake this could theoretically happen regardless of the shape of the earth but even the mainstream images and terminology employed from plate tectonics to fault planes all suggest the geology of a level plane and not a spherical ball you've got to be kidding me here you can't actually be saying that plate tectonics is more consistent with a flat earth model because our textbook diagrams are flat that's got to be the most idiotic thing i've ever heard look you should probably instead try to provide a proper explanation plus evidence on how plays move in the first place on a flat earth model everything else falls into place after that but until you start with the basics your hypothesis has no backing as for volcanoes the globe model purports that the lava which erupts and is ejected from volcanoes comes from deep inside the magical magma tootsie roll center of their tootsie pop earth lava that comes out of volcanoes actually comes from the mantle not the core the very center of the earth the inner core is solid despite the incredibly high temperature it remains a solid because it is composed of different elements than the rest mostly iron and nickel the mantle layer meanwhile contains melted rock or magma as we like to call it looks like you need to study a bit on some middle school science before trying to debunk it in reality however the longest and deepest drilling operation in history the russian cola superdeep after NUMBER_TOKEN years and busting several drills managed to bore only eight miles down so the entire ball earth model taught in schools showing a crust outer mantle inner mantle outer core and inner core layers where this molten magma supposedly rests are all purely speculation as we have never actually even penetrated through beyond the crust but you don't actually need to dig that far down to know what's down there there are plenty of other ways to know what kind of elements are down there and how deep each layer goes the method is similar to an x-ray how does the doctor know what your insides look like without actually digging a hole into your chest scientists have used seismic waves which are waves that travel through the earth by recording these waves we can study how these waves bounce around accelerate and decelerate or change directions on the earth traveling through different layers of the earth for example would cause the velocity of the waves to change then by tracing the path of these waves such as by mapping its
