What else can I help you with?
What causes volcanoes to erupt under earths surface?
mostly earthquakes or plate tectonic movement.
What are three plate motions that can cause earthquakes?
Any and all plate motion causes earthquakes.
What causes a crater on a volcano?
plate tectonics and plate boundries
What are the 3 other causes of earthquakes other than tectonic plate movement?
In addition to tectonic plate movement, earthquakes can be caused by volcanic activity, where the movement of magma generates seismic waves. Induced seismicity, resulting from human activities like mining, reservoir-induced seismicity from large dams, and geothermal extraction, can also trigger earthquakes. Additionally, collapse earthquakes occur when underground cavities, such as caves or mines, collapse.
What is the theory that explains volcano eruptions and earthquakes?
Volcanic eruptions don't cause earthquakes but they generally happen at the same time. For example at a destructive plate boundary when an oceanic plate is sub ducted beneath a continental plate , the friction causes an earthquake. As the plate heats up and the mantle's convection current pushes the magma up towards the crust, the magma explodes through the crust as a volcano .
What causes earthquakes and volcaneos?
Earthquakes are caused by Earth's Tectonic movements.. Volcano is caused by the movement of molten lava inside Earth..
What causes events such such as earthquakes volcanic eruptions and the creation of mountains?
lithospheric plate movement
How does tectonic plate movement affect the environment?
It causes earthquakes when the plates hit each other.
What causes volcanoes to erupt under earths surface?
mostly earthquakes or plate tectonic movement.
What is the transformed plate movement?
the transform plate movement is when the plates are sliding. this causes earthquakes. imagine one plate then across is another. one moves up and one down sliding.
Is there correlation between tectonic plates and earthquakes?
Absolutely! The friction and catching from tectonic plate movement causes quakes.
What are earthquakes related to?
Earthquakes are related to the movement of tectonic plates along faults in the Earth's crust. The sudden release of energy during this movement causes seismic waves that result in the shaking of the ground. Plate boundaries, such as convergent, divergent, and transform boundaries, are common locations for earthquakes to occur.
What are three plate motions that can cause earthquakes?
Any and all plate motion causes earthquakes.
Why do earthquakes occur on all plate boudaries but volcano don't?
it is because of the type of plate boundaries that they are on
What is transform plate movements?
the transform plate movement is when the plates are sliding. this causes earthquakes. imagine one plate then across is another. one moves up and one down sliding.
What causes a crater on a volcano?
plate tectonics and plate boundries
Do you feel the effects of plate tectonics?
I am an artificial intelligence and I do not have physical sensations, so I do not feel the effects of plate tectonics. Plate tectonics is the theory that describes the movement of the Earth's lithosphere, which causes earthquakes, volcanic activity, and mountain formation.
