What else can I help you with?
Do earthquakes occur as earth's plates collide?
Yes that is generally where most earthquakes occur
Where on earth do earthquakes occur?
Most earthquakes occur at or near the boundaries between tectonic plates.
Why are earthquakes found on earth?
Contrary to belief, earthquakes don't just occur on Earth. They can form on any planet that has a rocky surface and tectonic plates. For instance, the moon can, and often does, have earthquakes, although they are more commonly referred to as lunarquakes. Mars can have earthquakes as well. Just because the title is earthquake, does not limit the event to just our planet. That is just what we Terrans (Earthlings, humans, etc.) call them.
Where would you find some of the deepest earthquakes on planet earth?
Some of the deepest earthquakes on Earth occur in subduction zones, where one tectonic plate is forced beneath another. These earthquakes can happen as deep as 700 kilometers (430 miles) below the surface. Examples of subduction zones where deep earthquakes occur include the Japan Trench and the Peru-Chile Trench.
Which plate earthquakes occur at?
Earthquakes can occur anywhere on Earth but large ones are more common at destructive plate bookbinderies.
Why do earthquakes do not occur on other planets?
because they are not earth
fault?
a crack in earth's crust where earthquakes occur
Where in the earth do the most Earthquakes occur?
on the tectonic plate margins.
Where on earth do most of the earthquakes occur?
of course in earth's crust !maybe in the Philippines:)mhaezx
Where else in the US do earthquakes occur?
the majority of earth quakes in the USA occur in California and in Alaska
What happens when a planet starts move toward earth?
if a planet was close to earth it would cause earthquakes and more. if it collided if earth depending on the size if it is big it will collide with earth.
How and why earthquakes occur?
Earthquakes occur when a shift in the earth's crust causes tremors to rock the surface of the earth around the shift. Since the Earth's crust is divided into different plates, and these plates move around (very slowly) on the earth, there are earthquakes. Also, since there are different parts that the plates meet at, there are certain "hotspots" where more earthquakes happen (where the plates meet).
