Vibrations caused by rocks breaking and moving as a result of a sudden release of energy is called an Earthquake. By the movement of plate boundaries, depending how it moved, is how strong the Earthquake will be.

What type of energy is caused by an object's vibrations?

Mechanical energy is caused by an object's vibrations. When an object vibrates, it possesses both kinetic and potential energy due to its motion and position during the vibrations.


What energy is the energy caused by objects vibrations It travels waves?

Sound energy is the energy caused by objects' vibrations. Sound energy travels in waves through a medium such as air, water, or solids, carrying the vibrations produced by the object.


What energy caused by vibrations?

The energy caused by vibrations is known as mechanical energy. When an object vibrates, it generates kinetic energy through its motion, which can be converted into other forms of energy, such as sound or heat.


What is energy caused by vibrations in air or water?

Sound energy is caused by vibrations in air or water. These vibrations create waves that travel through the medium and are picked up by our ears as sound.


What is the breaking of rocks that causes vibrations in Earth?

The breaking of rocks that causes vibrations in Earth is known as rock fracturing or rock faulting. This typically occurs due to stress and pressure within the Earth's crust, leading to the release of stored energy in the form of seismic waves. These vibrations are what we feel during earthquakes.


Does breaking a bond release energy?

Yes, breaking a bond can release energy.


How do you generate power through sound?

Sound is caused by vibrations, and (at least experimentally) energy could be derived from the variance in transmitted vibrations.


Does the process of bond breaking release energy?

Yes, the process of bond breaking requires energy input, not release.
