Earthquake
What else can I help you with?
What occurs when ground near tectonic plates shift and change position?
Earthquake
Why does motion occurs?
motion occurs when an object changes its position relative to a reference point.
What occurs at a dee-ocean?

This is a geologic event that occurs when tectonic plates are displaced violently?
An earthquake is a geologic event that occurs when tectonic plates are displaced violently. The release of energy along faults in the Earth's crust causes shaking of the ground surface.
Motion occurs when an object changes its location or its?
Motion occurs when an object changes its position relative to a reference point or frame of reference. This can involve changes in location, orientation, velocity, or acceleration of the object.
How do particles move in the ground when an earthquake occurs?
During an earthquake, particles in the ground move in a wave-like motion due to the release of energy from the shifting of tectonic plates. This causes the ground to shake, creating seismic waves that propagate through the Earth. The particles move both horizontally and vertically, resulting in the ground shaking in different directions.
When this occurs the same amount of material occupies the same amount of space but the position of the material changes.?
shearing
When this occurs the same amount of material occupies the same amount is space but the position of the material changes?
shearing
Where does uplift occur Where does subsidence occur?
Uplift occurs when tectonic forces push rock layers upward, leading to the elevation of land. This can happen at convergent boundaries, where tectonic plates collide. Subsidence occurs when the ground sinks or collapses, often due to factors like sediment compaction, mining activities, or the withdrawal of groundwater.
What are types of earthquakes?
There are four different types of earthquakes - tectonic, volcanic, collapse and explosion. A tectonic earthquake is one that occurs when the earth's crust breaks due to geological forces on rocks and adjoining plates that cause physical and chemical changes.
What occurs at a divergent boundaries?
Tectonic plates divide
What occurs when tectonic plate move?
A rift valley.
