they all have to do with waves like seismic waves and surface wave. Also underwater earthquakes cause tsunamis and usually volcanoes produce earthquakes when they are about to erupt

∙ 11y agoTsunamis have a variety of causes - they can be caused by earthquakes (think the 2004 Indian ocean event), landslide events (1958 Lituya Bay event in Alaska), or asteroid impacts. Some of these landslides may be triggered by seismic events, such as those associated with volcanics (especially at subduction boundaries) or general plate boundary motion.
Earthquakes can be caused by plate boundary motion (reverse faults, normal faults, and strike-slip faults) and the subterranean magma movement associated with volcanoes.
Volcanoes can be found in three different locations on the earth's surface; at divergent plate boundaries (Iceland - also a hot spot), subduction zones (Japan, South America), and atop mantle plumes/hot spots (Hawaii).
To tie this all together, a tsunami can be caused by an earthquake that was generated from a volcanic eruption - the most likely place for this is at a subduction boundary.

∙ 11y agoAll four of these items are natural occurances. Volcanoes, hot springs and earthquakes are all more common along fault lines; tsunamis are commonly caused by disruptions along the fault lines.

∙ 9y agoThey are all powerful and pontetiall very deadly and destructive forces of nature. Earthquakes, tornadoes, and hurricanes are natural disasters. A volcano is a geologic formation, while a volcanic eruption is a natural disaster.

Can Landslides and mudslides result from both volcanoes and earthquakes. True or false?
True earthquakes and volcanoes can cause landslides.
What four things happen when plates move?
earthquakes volcanoes landslides and tsunami
Which of these hazards out of earthquakes volcanoes mountains trenches and mudslides are at convergent boundaries?
earthquakes, volcanic activity, landslides, and avalanches.
What is the relationship between the locations of volcanoes and earthquakes with regard to faults?
Earthquakes and volcanoes are most common near the faults at plate boundaries.
Are a dormant volcanoes still dangerous?
Yes. Even without an eruption a dormant volcano may be prone to earthquakes, landslides, and gas emissions.
Can Landslides and mudslides result from both volcanoes and earthquakes. True or false?
True earthquakes and volcanoes can cause landslides.
How do you know when volcanoes will erupt?
Occurence of tremors, earthquakes, gasseous emission and landslides.

List the princeiple natural hazards of California?
Main hazards include: Earthquakes, Drought, Wildfires, Volcanoes, Storms, Landslides.
How do earthquakes floods volcanoes and landslides cause to coastlands?
They make houses fall down a people will not have houses because of damage.
Are earthquakes related to landslides or tsunamis?
Earthquakes can trigger both landslides and tsunamis.
Can tsunamis be caused by earthquakes in the ocean floor?
Tsunamis are usually triggered by earthquakes that occur at subduction zones. A subduction zone is where one tectonic plate slide under another.Tsunamis are also caused by landslides along the coastline, which may be triggered by earthquakes, and on rare occasion by meteors crashing into the oceans if they're of significant size.

Yes. Even without an eruption a dormant volcano may be prone to earthquakes, landslides, and gas emissions.
