Vibrations that occur when rocks break due to stress?
in my science book it says an earthquake
What are the vibrations that occur during an earthquake called?
sciesmic waves ;]
The number of vibrations that occur in 1 second is called?
hertz??
Vibrations produced by the breaking of rock?
Vibrations produced by breaking of rocks are called vibrations, earthquakes are produced by these, earthquakes occur when the plates under the earths crust are built with stress and then collapse, causing them to move inward towards each other and cause large virations, producing earthquakes. 8th grade question.
After an earthquake additional adjustments can occur along the fault These adjustments can cause damaging vibrations called?
after shocks
Nobody is sure how Felis silvestris catus makes this sound and we're not even sure why but we do know that the vibrations reduce stress in people and that they occur at a frequency that helps bones?
Purring
How are sounds heard?
When vibrations from someone or something occur the ear captures the vibrations if it is close enough.
What Stress will build until an earthquake occurs if friction along a fault is?
The mechanism for stress to be released from friction along a fault is known as elastic rebound. Vibrations occur when rocks elastically return to their original shape causing damage from the seismic waves being sent out.
What is the number of vibrations that occur in a 1-second time interval is called?
It is called the frequency. The SI unit is the Hertz. One Hertz is one cycle per second.
What is it called when changes occur when elements or compounds break bend or tear?
This phenomenon is called "tribochemistry".
What is the number of vibrations that occur in a given time interval?
That's the (frequency of the vibrations) multiplied by the (number of seconds in the time interval)
What is the number of vibrations that occur in a 1-second time interval?
frequency
