What else can I help you with?
How are earthquakes and volcanoes and mountains are related?
because volcanoes can also be caused by plates
Are volcanoes and earthquakes manmade?
No. They are caused by the shifting of tectonic plates.
Do tectonic plates effect volcanoes and earthquakes?
There is an intricate set of techtonic plates that are located all over the earth. When volcanic eruptions occur then these plates can shift due to the excess pressure that the eruptions cause. This techtonic plate movement can then result in earthquakes.
What is the cause for earthquakes in Japan?
The Movement of Techtonic Plates causes the earthquakes in Japan.
How can a volcano be constructive?
by two techtonic plates pushing up against each other and creting tension which when relised could create earthquakes or volcanoes
What type of geologic actions do you think happen at the boundaries of tetonic plates?
Volcanoes, caused by slipping plates, and earthquakes, caused by rubbing plates.
What mechanism could cause the concentrations of volcanoes and earthquakes around the Pacific Ocean?
The techtonic plates come together and one plate will go down where the other will go upwards. this is what makes or causes volcanoes
Why are earthquakes regular in japan?
It is because of the positioning of the areas techtonic plates.
How does a earthquakes place affect tsunamis?
when the techtonic plates move, they can make an earthquake, that then may trigger techtonic plates to move and begin waves that become a tsunami
Why do they have volcanoes?
Volcanoes form from either techtonic plates crashing together or from hot spots under the earth
What are some causes of earthquakes?
If seen broadly we can say that earthquakes are caused due to two major reasons. The first reason is the eruption of volcanoes, which are sudden, and as is known volcanoes are seat of inner disturbance and can effect the plates which is the second cause of earthquakes. Earthquakes are caused due to disturbance in the movement of plates, which again can be caused due to various reasons like under crust waves or cracks in the plates.
What do the locations of earthquakes and volcanoes have in common?
They are both caused by the plates under the earth being unstable, therefore moving causing vibrations and the outcome is either volcanoes or earthquakes.
