What are the three types of plate boundaries and what types of faults occur there?
a. Transform:transform boundaries or motion creates strike-slip faults.b. Convergent:convergent boundaries or motion creates reverse faults.c. Divergent:divergent motion creates a normal fault.
Is most of the air movement in the intertropical convergence zone horizontal or vertical?
The ITCZ is where a lot of air rises and precipitates - vertical motion.
How does the surface of an object affect its motion?
The surface of an object affects the aerodynamic drag: a force which acts against the direction of motion.
How does the ground motion produced by a P-wave compare to the ground motion produced by a surface-wave?
The underground motion of a P-wave usually effects the us less than ones near or on the surface.
What do you call a fractured surface on earth's crust where a mass of rock is in motion?
A fractured surface on the Earth's crust where a mass of rock is in motion is called a fault.
Which motion creates sounds?
Oscilatory Motion
What is inward force necessary for circular motion to occur?
Centripetal Force
Inward force necessary for circular motion to occur?
The inward force needed for circular motion is called centripetal force. It is directed towards the center of the circle and is required to keep an object moving in a curved path instead of a straight line. Without this force, the object would continue in a straight line tangent to the circle.
What are the three types of plate boundaries and what types of faults occur there?
a. Transform:transform boundaries or motion creates strike-slip faults.b. Convergent:convergent boundaries or motion creates reverse faults.c. Divergent:divergent motion creates a normal fault.
What type of motion creates earthquakes?

Does a tornado suck or blow wind?
Tornadoes suck air inward and upward. Close to the center of the tornado there is little inward motion. There the wind mostly moves in a circle and upwards.
True or false Motion parallel to earths surface is vertical motion Motion parallel to earths surface is vertical motion?
False. Consider a car moving on the road, along the earth's surface. That is considered to be Vx or Horizontal motion or velocity. If the car were to move perpendicular to the earth's surface that would be Vy or Vertical motion and velocity.
What is the motion of surface waves?
surface waves are seism c waves that travel along the surface in a side to side, swaying, motion parallel to earth's surface.
Does friction oppose motion or relative motion of surface in contact?
Relative motion
What is the order to remove cylinder head bolts in an 1989 Plymouth Acclaim?
Work inward in a circular motion.
What creates earths motion?
the suns gravity pull creates the earths movement as well as the other planets
Force that opposes motion of surface as it moves across another surface?
the force that opposes the motion of two touching surfaces is velocity.
