Becouse when the Continental and Ocean crust collide, an updrift occurs and an earthquake is formed. This may also result in Volcano activitey. See-Plate Tectonics
If the fault is responsible for the earthquake, there will be movement (displacement) along the fault.
Earthquakes occur along a fault. Near the San Andreas fault lots of earthquakes occur.
Not just in hot places. They can happen anywhere, but mostly along fault lines.
Energy is released and earthquakes happen.
Earthquakes often occur along faults or breaks in Earth's crust where movements occur. These movements happen when stress builds up along the fault and is released suddenly, causing the rocks to break and generate seismic waves. Earthquakes can range in intensity depending on the magnitude of the movement along the fault.
At fault lines
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
Along fault lines
Along fault line.
They happen along the fault lines that separate or crash into each other. The planet is made of Tectonic plates that are constantly moving, and that's why earthquakes happen
, Earthquakes occurs along fault lines, fault lines are where tectonic plates meet. There is a build up of pressure when the plates converge ( move in and hit each other). When the pressure is to great it is released in an earthquake. Hope this helps.
