In the extreme tension forces can cause local vulcanism. At a local level it may create fault block mountains. Over larger landscapes, it creates Rift Valleys such as the giant one in East Africa today.
What else can I help you with?
What kind of reflection does a brick wall cause?
Diffuse reflection
What cause you to get warm if you stand near a fire?
the heat from the fire! what kind of question is that?
What kind of experiment is one in which the condition suspected to cause the effect is compared to the same situation without the suspected condition?
scientific experiment
What changes when an unbalanced force acts upon an object?
There's no such thing as "an unbalanced force". When the entire group of forces acting on an object is unbalanced, the object accelerates, in the direction of the vector sum of the forces.
What kind of information could reasonably be expected to cause serious damage to national security in the event of unauthorized disclosure?
Secret information could reasonably be expected to cause serious damage to national security in the event of unauthorized disclosure.
What kind of forces can act on anything?
Some common forces that can act on objects include gravitational, electromagnetic, frictional, tensional, normal, and applied forces. These forces can cause objects to accelerate, deform, or move in various ways depending on their magnitude and direction.
What kind of stress causes fault block mountains?
Tensional stress, which results from the pulling apart of the Earth's crust, causes fault block mountains to form. This stress leads to the extension and fracturing of the crust, resulting in the blocks of crust moving up or down along faults to create a mountain range.
In Windows memory errors can cause what kind of frequent errors?
General protection fault errors.
If a fault occurs on an area where rock layers have folded what kind of fault will it be?
A fault that occurs on folded rock layers is likely to be a thrust fault, where one block of rock is pushed up and over the other. This type of fault is common in areas where horizontal compression forces have folded the rock layers.
What kind of fault is the Owens fault?
it is a normal fault.
What kind of fault is the Hayward fault?
the Hayward fault is a "transform" fault. :)
What has forces got to do with gravity?
Gravity is the cause of one important kind of force that we find everywhere.
What kind of stress forms fault block mountains?
Fold-block mountains form when tension makes the lithosphere break into many normal faults.
What kind of faults does compression causes?
a compression force would cause a normal fault. i rember by the name compress "press" together
What forces may cause acceleration deceleration and change in direction?
Unbalanced forces of any kind (e.g. electrical, magnetic, mechanical, inertial, or collision) will cause a change in velocity, i.e. any of the three effects.
What kind of force occurs in the San Andreas fault?
The San Andreas Fault is a strike-slip fault, where two tectonic plates move horizontally past each other. The main force causing movement along the fault is the tectonic forces generated by the motion of the Pacific Plate relative to the North American Plate.
What kind of fault moves because it is under tension?
A normal fault moves because it is under tension. In a normal fault, the hanging wall moves down relative to the footwall due to the pulling apart of the Earth's crust, creating space and tension that cause the fault to move.
