Rocks sliding along a creek, become rounded and broken into ever smaller pieces by the water action. They will eventually become grains of sand on the beach, if the water flow is sometimes strong enough to carry the grains to reach the sea.
sounds like, if the rocks are plates, an earthquake... assuming this "crack" is a fault?? does this help?
my dick
A fault forms when rock layers slip or slide along a crack. This movement can create an earthquake if the stress becomes too great for the rocks to hold their position.
Shearing of rocks is a type of stress that causes rocks to deform by sliding past each other along a plane. It typically occurs along transform plate boundaries where two tectonic plates slide horizontally past each other. This movement can lead to the formation of faults and earthquakes.
Along a transform boundary, crust is neither destroyed nor formed. Instead, tectonic plates slide past each other horizontally, causing earthquakes.
At these boundaries, the rocks grind and slide against each other, causing earthquakes.
This process is called "faulting," where rocks break and slide against each other due to tectonic forces, creating faults in the Earth's crust.
When an earthquake happens the tectonic plates slide up rubbing on each other. Then they slide up and form huge rocks that are eroded in time. These formations are called mountains
When rocks and earth slide down a mountain, it is called a landslide.
A fractured surface on Earth's crust when a mass of rocks is in motion is known as a fault. It occurs due to the movement of tectonic plates along a fracture line. This movement can result in earthquakes as energy is released when the rocks slide past each other along the fault.
one has rocks and the other doesnt
