Generally materials that fly apart are being pushed rather than pulled. We could devise a mechanism that pulls materials apart - for example, if we attach two hooks and pull them on winches in opposite directions. In that case we would describe the force as mechanical in nature. But it is more likely that things get pushed apart by their own internal pressure.
What else can I help you with?
Which force is most responsible for the earths revolution around the sun?
Gravity.
How does the moons gravitational force affect the crust of the earth?
The gravitational force of the moon causes tidal bulges in the Earth's crust, leading to the rise and fall of ocean tides. This gravitational interaction between the moon and the Earth also contributes to the phenomenon of Earth's rotation slowing down over time.
Does the moons gravitational force stronger than earths gravitational force?
No the Earth would pull u more than the moon
What is the dominant force causing the earths tides?
The dominant force causing Earth's tides is the gravity of the moon as it revolves around us.
Is it true that tides are created by the difference between the gravitational force at Earths surface and at Earths center?
Yes, that's basically what causes tides. ===================== And the moon. Lets not forget its role.
What is the force that stretches or pulls apart the crust of the earth?
Tension stretches or pulls apart the crust.
What is a force that stretches materials apart?
tension
What is the force that stretches or pull apart the crust called?
When there is a divergent boundary, regardless if the plates are ocean-ocean or continental-continental, tensional stress pulls on the crust. Rocks have weaker tensional strength than compressive strength, so they are easier to pull apart.
Which stress force pulls on the crust and stretches rock?
Tensional stress force pulls on the crust and stretches rock. This type of stress occurs where tectonic plates are moving away from each other.
What force stretches objects?
Tensile force stretches objects by pulling them apart along their length. This force is exerted when an external force is applied to stretch or elongate a material, causing its molecules to separate and create tension within the object.
What is the procedure to make a fault block mountain?
What is needed to make a real life Fault Block Mountain is cracks in the earth and other things. 1. Cracks in the earths crust force some materials of rocks up and others down. 2. The earths crust fractures ( pulls apart) 3. You have you a wonderful Fault Block Mountain
What is the stress force that pulls on the crust where two plates are moving apart?
it may be gravity
The stress force that pulls on the crust where two plates are moving apart is called .?
tension
What causes the pressure to increase as you go deeper below the earths crust?
Because the density of the force increases.
What is the force that pulls apart the crust called?
The force that pulls apart the crust is called tensional or extensional tectonic stress, which occurs at divergent plate boundaries where tectonic plates move away from each other. This pulling force can lead to the formation of rift valleys and mid-ocean ridges.
How do earthquakes cause changes in the earths crust?
It breaks through the crust, and sometimes goes in the core, simply because all of the force and pressure from the plates rubbing together.
Why do isostasy occurs?
equillibrium in earths crust such that the force tending to elevate land masses balance the forces tending to depress land masses equillibrium in earths crust such that the force tending to elevate land masses balance the forces tending to depress land masses
