What else can I help you with?
Are earthquakes related to landslides or tsunamis?
Earthquakes can trigger both landslides and tsunamis.
What are some factors that cause tsunamis?
Tsunamis are caused by undersea landslides. There are many possible causes for undersea landslides, but the most common are undersea earthquakes.
How did plate tectonics make earthquakes landslides and tidal waves?
Plate tectonics cause earthquakes when tectonic plates move and release built-up stress at their boundaries. Landslides can occur during earthquakes when the shaking of the ground causes slope failures. Tidal waves, or tsunamis, can be generated by underwater earthquakes or landslides that displace large volumes of water.
Can Landslides and mudslides result from both volcanoes and earthquakes. True or false?
True earthquakes and volcanoes can cause landslides.
How are landslides causes?
Landslides typically occur after periods of heavy rain, when the ground has become waterlogged and unable to hold together. However, landslides can also be triggered by mining, leaking water pipes, earthquakes and volcanic eruptions.
Can landslides be caused by plates in the earth moving?
Indirectly. The movement of tectonic plates is the cause of the majority of earthquakes. Earthquakes can cause landslides.
How tsunami takes place?
A tsunami happens after an abrupt movement of the ocean floor. The most common causes are from earthquakes and underwater landslides.
How does earthquake cause landslide?
Earthquakes cause shaking that causes soil, rocks to slide down a mountain side. The longer the earthquake the more likely there will be large landslides. Volcanoes can also cause landslides when they erupt.
Which of these hazards are characteristic of a convergent boundary Earthquakes volcanoesMountianstrenches mud landslides other?
Volcanic activity and Earthquakes are two. And two more are Landslides and avalanches.
What events causes tsunamis?
Under water earth quakes, landslides,volcanic eruptions, under water explosions and the impact of a meteorite or comet.
How are earthquakes and landslides similar?
Earthquakes and landslides both involve the movement of the Earth's crust. Earthquakes can trigger landslides by shaking loose rocks and soil on steep slopes, causing them to give way and slide downhill. Both natural disasters can have devastating impacts on communities and infrastructure.
What causes earquake?
dunno what happends in your ear, but earthquakes is caused by rupture of geological faults, but also by volcanic activity, landslides, mine blasts, and nuclear experiments.
