near the plate boundaries
earthquakes happen when these sections of earths crust move
it means earthquakes will happen more often
The tectonic plates.
earthquakes happen when sections of the earths crust shift.These shifting parts called plates,are actually pieces of the crust floating on the hot molten interior of the earth. The majority of earthquakes happen along the edges of those plates,and along weak areas of the crust called fault zones
The weather and sky have nothing to do with it. Earthquakes happen when to pieces of earths crust suddenly move against or under another.
Earthquakes happen when the Earth's crust shifts violently. So if we know that an earthquake has happened in California, then scientist know that the crust under California is unstable, therefore making earthquakes more likely to happen there. Earthquakes can happen anywhere, but the tend to happen repeatedly in certain spots
I think there are three types of earthquakes one is the earths crust
I would say Japan because it is separated into four pieces of the earths crust. in Tokyo Very small earthquakes happen every day
Earthquakes happen when tectonic plates along fault lines shift and release built-up pressure, causing the ground to shake. The sudden release of energy creates seismic waves that result in vibrations felt on the Earth's surface.
They Can occur anywere a Fault Line is on Earth They happen when earths crust releases and the Fault Line send out Energy =p
its just cause the earths crust didint crack there before
alright so when tectonic plates meet there are earthquakes because when the plates collide with each other because the earth is always moving it creates giant earthquakes that push and pull the tectonic plates on the crust of earth causing earth quakes. Volcanoes form at the boundaries of tectonic plates because it is one of the only places on the earths crust where there are holes in the crust so the liquid mantle (lava) can escape through the earths crust. forming volcanoes.
