What is a ground movement caused by a release of energy when rocks along a fault move?
Earthquake
What are earth qakes?
when the ground starts to brake and houses start to clapes into piles of ruble
What causes all types of rocks to be exposed to weathering and erosion?
Uplift caused by tectonic movement
What is diastrophism?
Diastrophism is the general term for faulting and folding within the crust, the deformation and movement of the solid rocks of the Earth.
Why are earthquakes caused by rocks breaking?
Vibrating through movement of rocks
Do the movement of rocks in the earth causes the ground to shake?
the movement in the rocks dosnot cause the ground to shake?
Do the movement in of rocks in the Earth cause the ground to shake?

What causes the soil and rocks particles fall?
When the ground thaws, the force of gravity causes the soil and rock particles to fall back down. But they fall vertically, toward the center of Earth. The result is movement downhill.
What is is it called when plate movement causes rocks to break?
When plate movement causes rocks to break it is call an earthquake.
Why aren't all rocks the same?
Rocks are not the same because, they come from either a Volcano, or they are broken from the Earth's ground. So this causes it to be different shapes and sizes.
Does movement of the rocks in the ground cause the ground to shake?
Yes. This is known as an earthquake and is caused by the movement of tectonic plates.
What does a hydrologist do?
Hydrogeology is a branch of Earth science, it is mainly based on the study of ground water movement over soil and rocks.Hydrogeology is the study of geology that deals with the distribution and movement of groundwater in the soil and rocks of the Earth's crust.
What is subtuction?
the movement of rocks and mantle beneath the earth crust
What is the breaking of rocks that causes vibrations in Earth?
Earthquakes
When plate movement causes rocks to break it's called .?
At the region between the two plates, called a transform boundary, pent-up energy builds in the rock. A fault line, a break in the Earth's crust where blocks of crust are moving in different directions, will form. Most, though not all, earthquakes happen along transform boundary fault lines.
What is a ground movement caused by a release of energy when rocks along a fault move?
Earthquake
How does the movement of earths plates cause earthquakes?
The plates rub together causing the rocks to move and it causes the ground to shake forming an earthquake. The more the plates move, the bigger the earthquake number.
