What kind of tension leads to earthquakes?
Earthquakes are primarily caused by tectonic stress, which occurs when the Earth's tectonic plates interact. This stress can result from three main types of tension: compressional stress, where plates push together; tensional stress, where plates pull apart; and shear stress, where plates slide past one another. When the accumulated stress exceeds the strength of the rocks, it releases energy in the form of seismic waves, causing an earthquake.
What kind of landforms happen from earthquakes?
Mountains of tectonic plates i think!
What kind of style did Jackson Pollock have?
His way of working is called 'Action painting', which is a kind of abstract expressionism.
What kind of currency do the villagers use in Things Fall Apart?
The villagers use cowries as currency.
How can people map tectonic plates?
The earth's tectonic plates are always moveing. So the movement of the plates creates earthquakes and when they separate lets lava spill out and dry. Scientists can locate these movements over hundreds of years and form kind of like a child's game, connect the dots. But just the ones within about 10 to 20 miles.
What kind of action pulls tectonic plates apart?
current lagao
What kind of plates pull apart?
divergent plates
What kind of boundaries move plates apart?
divergent
What is a kind of valley where plates move apart?
It is called a rift valley.
This kind of action causes thinning plates?
Plate tectonics can lead to the thinning of plates when they separate at divergent boundaries. As plates move apart, magma rises to fill the gap, creating new crust and causing the existing plates to stretch and thin out. This process is known as seafloor spreading.
The kind of valley is where tectonic plates move apart?
The awnser is rift vally
Tension pulls rocks apart and creates this kind of fault?
Tension creates normal faults, where the hanging wall moves downward relative to the footwall. This type of fault is common in divergent boundary settings when tectonic plates move away from each other, causing extension and the rocks to be pulled apart.
What kind of mountains are formed when two plates drift apart and magma builds up on the crust of the earth?
volcanoes
What are tectonic plates and how do they shape the earth?
They are pieces of land that either are divergent which means that they spread apart from each other, they can also be transform plates which slide on each other and the last kind that mostly shapes the earth are tectonic plates that collide or converge which causes earthquakes, volcanoes, and tsunamis.
What kind of valley where plates move apart?
A rift valley is formed when tectonic plates move apart, creating a gap in the Earth's crust. This process is often associated with divergent boundaries where new crust is formed as magma rises to fill the gap. Rift valleys can be found on land or under the ocean.
What kind of plates are under Japan's?
Tectonic plates
What kind of machine pulls things?
Chevorlet's
