What is stress that pulls on crust called?
the type of stress that pulls the crust is called TENSION.
What is stress that pulls on rocks of the crust?
tension
What is stress that pulls on rocks-of the crust?
tension
What is stress that pulls on the rocks of the crust called?
Stress that acts to pull materials (including rocks of the crust) apart is known as tensile stress.
Which stress force pulls on the crust and stretches rock?
Tensional stress force pulls on the crust and stretches rock. This type of stress occurs where tectonic plates are moving away from each other.
What is the stress force that pulls on the crust where two plates are moving apart?
it may be gravity
The stress force that pulls on the crust where two plates are moving apart is called .?
tension
What stress pulls crust and stretches rock?
Tensional stress pulls crust apart and stretches rock, causing it to deform and eventually break along fault lines. This type of stress commonly occurs at divergent plate boundaries where tectonic plates are moving away from each other.
What is the force that stretches or pull apart the crust called?
When there is a divergent boundary, regardless if the plates are ocean-ocean or continental-continental, tensional stress pulls on the crust. Rocks have weaker tensional strength than compressive strength, so they are easier to pull apart.
What is stress that pulls and stretches the rock of the crust?
Tension stress is the type of stress that pulls and stretches the rock of the Earth's crust. It commonly occurs at divergent plate boundaries where tectonic plates are moving away from each other. This stress can lead to the formation of features like rift valleys and mid-ocean ridges.
What is the force that stretches or pulls apart the crust of the earth?
Tension stretches or pulls apart the crust.
What is the stress force that pulls on the crust and thins rock in the middle is?
The stress force that pulls on the crust and thins rock in the middle is called tension. Tensional stress occurs when two plates move away from each other, creating faults where rocks are pulled apart and thinned in the middle. This process is often associated with the formation of rift valleys and mid-ocean ridges.
