When earthquake happen when these sections of earth crust move?
earthquakes happen when these sections of earths crust move
What layer of earth is made up of plates that move?
The earths crust
Earthquakes happen when what section of the earths crust move?
The tectonic plates.
Why is the earths crust always moving?
Simple- Convection in the mantle causes mantle to slowly move, and it pushes against the crust. As it does this, the tectonic plates move.
What is the scientific name when plates in the Earth's crust shift and move?
continentual drift
In what ways do plates in the earths crust move?
they move in all sorts of ways like the bottom and the top lol :}
Do some part of the earths crust move up 12 cm per year?
no
Cracks form in the crust of the earth because?
of the movement of tectonic plates causing stress and pressure to build up, leading to cracks or faults. Additionally, natural processes like weathering and erosion can also contribute to the formation of cracks in the Earth's crust.
Why do Hawaiian Islands move?
They move because the plates in Earths mantle shift and cause the island to move slightly. As the plates move around they cause changes in Earths landforms. The more pressure is on the plates the more they move around. Because of Japans tsunami and earthquakes, the plates were moved around to Hawaii and possibly could have caused an island to move. If you wander what plates are well they are rigid blocks of crust and upper mantle rock.
What happened if the earths crust move suddenly along fault?
The result is commonly known as an earthquake.
What happens to earths surface as huge pieces of crust move?
most times earthquakes occur
Earthquakes happen when these sections move along earths crust?
Earthquakes occur when tectonic plates, which make up the Earth's crust, shift against each other. This movement creates stress at the plate boundaries, which is eventually released in the form of seismic waves, causing the ground to shake.
