Stick-slip motion between lithospheric plates is what causes an?
Earthquake
What causes increases in barometric pressures?
Low and high pressure systems. Obviously if you have a Low pressure system the barometric pressure will get low. High pressure causes the barometric pressure to rise.
Why do lithospheric plates move constantly?
Lithospheric plates move due to convection currents in the underlying mantle. Heat generated from the Earth's core causes these currents, which push the plates in different directions. This constant movement is known as plate tectonics and is responsible for earthquakes, volcanic activity, and the formation of mountain ranges.
What weather system causes pressure to drop?
A Low Pressure System
How does air pressure cause wind?
Generally no, but the low pressure is not what makes wings fly either.
What causes lithospheric plates to build up pressure and finally give along transform faults?
Lithospheric plates build up pressure due to the movement of the underlying mantle causing stress to accumulate along transform faults. The build-up of pressure is a result of the friction and resistance between adjacent plates. When this pressure exceeds the strength of the rocks, it causes the plates to suddenly slip past each other, resulting in an earthquake along a transform fault.
Stick-slip motion between lithospheric plates is what causes an?
Earthquake
What causes earthquake at diversion boundaries?
moving of tectonic plates (lithospheric plates)
What do lithospheric plate movements have to do with convection?
there is convection in the mantle. it causes the plates to move.
What causes events such such as earthquakes volcanic eruptions and the creation of mountains?
lithospheric plate movement
What are the causes of abnormal pressure in a well?
causes of abnormal pressure
What is the force that causes turgor pressure?
The force that causes turgor pressure is osmosis.
The force with which the contract causes blood pressure?
the force with which what the contract causes blood pressure
Which describes the effect or prolonged stress on blood pressure?
It causes blood pressure to increase.
What causes increases in barometric pressures?
Low and high pressure systems. Obviously if you have a Low pressure system the barometric pressure will get low. High pressure causes the barometric pressure to rise.
What finally causes the sycmore to fall?
Gravity.
What causes stress in modern life?
Modern lifestyle is full of stress. It causes so because of the pressure. Pressure in lifestyle, Pressure at workplace.
