Earthquakes result when forces push plates along faults in the Earth's lithosphere. These plates are comprised of the crust and a portion of the upper mantle.

Anything that you can build,like say your buliding a house. BUILD is your answer
Strike-Slip faults are found at transform boundaries because strike slip faults push and pull on opposing forces HORIZONTALLY exactly like a transform boundary.
There are many forces that are responsible for making constructive changes on the surface of the Earth. These forces include volcanoes, earthquakes, wind, erosion, glaciers, and plate tectonics.
Forces and events inside the earth affect people because they have a bearing on what happens on the earth's surface. Earthquakes, waterfalls, and volcanoes are examples of occurrences that result from forces and events occurring inside the earth.
I have the same question but its false it in my course 2 science textbook. I hope this helps and i dont know what forces plates along faults in earths lithosphere sorry!
Cracks in the Earth's crust are called faults. They are typically a result of the action of tectonic forces and may be the cause of earthquakes.
Faults DO NOT produce earthquakes, faults are produced by earthquakes. This means that earthquake loci are centered on and along faults. The energy released by an earthquake is the stress energy built up as a result of plate tectonic forces.
Faults DO NOT produce earthquakes, faults are produced by earthquakes. This means that earthquake loci are centered on and along faults. The energy released by an earthquake is the strain energy built up as a result of plate tectonic forces. Some faults move easily and thus no strain energy builds up.

the pushed and pull of tectonic forces would decrease.
Faults do not cause continents and such to split apart. Faults are an effect of plate tectonics, just like earthquakes are an effect of faults moving. Land masses collide or break apart due to plate tectonics. Because tectonic forces place strain on s certain section of the earths crust, faults form and move from time to time to relieve the pressure.
Mostly Volcanic activity and Earthquakes
Most common change to the Earths surface from internal forces would most likely be earthquakes and volcano eruptions. External forces could be considered meteor strikes, or possibly the effects of gravity on the oceans ( Tides ) Global warming is also melting glaciers and causing a growth in arid regions. kapm
