What is a Stress at a divergent stress boundary?
This is known as tensile stress.
What is the stress at a divergent boundary called?
This is known as tensile stress.
What is stress at a divergent plate boundary called?
This is known as tensile stress.
A divergent boundary causes what type of stress?
It causes tensional stress.
What types of stress are present at divergent plate boundaries?
divergent plate boundaries are associated with normal faulting. Thus there is a horizontal least compressive stress, vertical most compressive stress and a intermediate horizontal stress. All stresses are orthoganal to each other.
What is a Stress at a divergent stress boundary?
This is known as tensile stress.
What is the stress at a divergent boundary called?
This is known as tensile stress.
What types of stress occurs at divergent plate boundarys?
Tensional stress
What types of stress occurs at a divergent plate boundary?
Tensional stress
What is stress at a divergent plate boundary called?
This is known as tensile stress.
A divergent boundary causes what type of stress?
It causes tensional stress.
What stress causes rocks to pull apart?
The type of stress that causes rocks to pull apart is a tension stress. It is the major type of stress found in divergent plate boundaries.
What types of stress are present at divergent plate boundaries?
divergent plate boundaries are associated with normal faulting. Thus there is a horizontal least compressive stress, vertical most compressive stress and a intermediate horizontal stress. All stresses are orthoganal to each other.
What type of plate boundary causes shear stresses?
Shearing stress is one of three kinds of stresses. Compressional and tensional are the others. Shearing stress is associated with transform. The other two kinds of plate boundaries are convergent and divergent.
What causes rocks to pull apart?
The type of stress that causes rocks to pull apart is a tension stress. It is the major type of stress found in divergent plate boundaries.
Why does no one have an answer to what stress causes divergent boundaries?
We lack the knowledge which it would take to answer that question correctly.
What are plate boundaries that move away form each other?
divergent
