What else can I help you with?
What causes an earthquake's vibrations?
The shifting of plate tectonics moving by eachother.
The earth hard shell is made up of thick slabs of rock that are constantly moving these slabs are constantly moving they are called and the interaction between them is called tectonics?
tectonic plates...... duhh
How are the plate tectonics causing your earth to change?
they are always moving
How long before an earthquake do foreshocks occur?
Foreshocks can occur hours, days, or even weeks before a larger earthquake, but there is no definitive timeline. Foreshocks are smaller earthquakes that precede a larger mainshock, and their occurrence can vary depending on the specific earthquake event.
Where are parts on earth weryou could fined plate tectonics?
The plates are made of rock and are all over the world. They are constantly moving and shifting.
Can an earthquake create a volcano?
well................. not always. Sometimes it could a little EARTH QUAKE, but it depends where you live.
What is shaking in a earthquake?
The Earth's crust is made up of tectonic plates. These plates are constantly moving and when they rub against one another, it causes an earthquake. So the thing that is shaking is the Earth's crust.
What have they discovered about earthquakes?
they are caused by Tectonic plates which are constantly moving and when they crash into each other which causes a vibration and that triggers a earthquake...hope it helps :)
What part do plate tectonics play when discussing earthquakes?
Oh, how I do hope you are below an 8th grade level to be asking this question. The cause of an earthquake is the plates and faults scraping and moving along eachother, the movement of the plates causes the earthquake. That is how they are involved.
Are the continents moving?
Yes, the continents are constantly moving due to plate tectonics. The movement is very slow, usually a few centimeters per year, but over millions of years, it has resulted in the shifting positions of the continents on Earth's surface.
Why are the plates of the crust always moving?
The plates of the Earth's crust are constantly moving due to the heat generated by the core of the planet. This heat causes convection currents in the mantle, which push and pull on the tectonic plates, leading to their movement. This movement is known as plate tectonics.
Does the moon rise at the same time at the same place?
No. It constantly changes, because it is always moving.
