It causes it to deform - this deformation is called "strain".


How is an earhquake started?

An earthquake is started when two plates (which lie under the Earths surface) rub together this creates movement which then sometimes pulls/pushes at the earths surface and creates giant cracks in the earths surface... and that is how an earthquake is started.

Why do few earthquake happen in earths mantle?

Few earthquakes happen in the earths mantle do to the fact that the mantle has a folded deformation. This means that the amount of pressure on the mantle caused it to deform.


What causes the elastic force?

The elastic force is caused by the deformation of an elastic material, such as a spring or rubber band, when it is stretched or compressed. This deformation creates a restoring force that tries to return the material to its original shape and position.


Any change in the volume or shape of earths crust is called?

Any change in the volume or shape of Earth's crust is called crustal deformation. This can occur due to tectonic forces, such as compression, extension, or shearing, which lead to features like folding, faulting, and uplift.
