it affects the earths crust because that's where earthquakes occur or start
The earth is a hot liquid in the middle and the gases have to ex scape to the outside.So to do that it pushes through rock and dirt making mountains and cracks are made along stress lines making the earth shake.

∙ 10y agoEarthquakes have three major impacts on the planet's surface:
1) raising or lowering land areas
2) changing river courses and erosion patterns
3) washing over low-lying lands and tidal flats with tsunamis
Earthquakes and volcanoes often have the same geologic origin, so it is difficult to say if earthquakes cause volcanic eruptions or the other way around.

What do volcanoes and earthquakes tell us about the structure of earth's interior?
I love earth! How bout you?That God has made thing for us to learn about and wonder, "why does this happen?"Also it shows us that our earth always go through changes.
Why are there more earthquakes in the US than any part of the Earth?
because America is in an earthquake zone...
Studying earthquakes has helped scientists to learn more about what?
They have given us important information about the internal structure of the Earth.
Why can't earthquakes be predicted?
Earthquakes can never be predicted because Mother Nature is a surprise to us all
Are earthquakes good for the earth?
yes
When an earthquake occurs data from one seismograph can tell you what?
The waves of earthquakes help us determine information about the interior of the earth. The more geologists know about the interior of the earth, the better they can predict earthquakes and other changes in the formation of the Earth's crust.
Is it true or false that Earthquakes permit us to see the structure of the Earth's interior?
It is true that seismic waves from earthquakes allow us to interpret the structure of Earth's interior.

What do earthquakes tell about the Earth?
It proves the Plate Tectonics theory suggested by Alfred Wegener.
Where are earthquakes likely to occur in US and why?
where cracks in the earth's plates connect. it is because the earth is constantly moving from the rotation of orbit causing plates to shift & make earthquakes
Are earthquakes helpful to the earth or not?
the earthquakes are helpful to earth in many ways....like: 1-they help in building landforms like rift valleys,block mountains,lakes etc 2-they help in releasing the stored up energy of earth 3-they tell about interior of earth's surface this is how they are useful for earth
Are Earthquakes Constructive or Destructive Force on Earth?
earthquakes constructive force on earth
How does geology help us?
It helps us by teaching things about planet Earth such as landslides, earthquakes, floods, and volcano eruptions
What is the us of sersmograph?
Electronically records movements in the earth's crust and is used to monitor and predict earthquakes.
Where else in the US do earthquakes occur?
the majority of earth quakes in the USA occur in California and in Alaska
Why are there more earthquakes in the US than any part of the Earth?
because America is in an earthquake zone...
How did cratering op Earth impact Earth?
i cant tell what your question is really, but im assuming youre asking "how did craters impact earth?". the answer is either meteors, earthquakes, or erosion.
