Three types of plate movements that cause earthquake?
i dont know ask your momy trick
What stress causes earthquakes?
There are three types of stress tension, compression, and shearing they all cause earthquakes.
Give examples of where the three types of plate movements occur?
San Andreas Fault--transform plate boundary. Himalayan Mountain Range--convergent plate boundary. Mid-ocean ridge--divergent plate boundary.
How are the three types of plate movements that can occur along plate boundaries alike?
Either: they all collide in some way, or they all affect the structure of the landscape in some way.
Examples of where the three types of plate movements occur?
Continental- continental collisions, Continental-oceanic collisions,and Oceanic-oceanic collisions
What is the three plate moments?
There are three different types of plate movements that cause earthquakes. The first is Divergent Boundaries (pulling apart), the second is Covergent Boundaries (coming together) and Transform Boundaries.
What two types of natural disaster are associated with plate movement?
Earthquakes and volcanoes! Also earthquakes can in turn cause tsunami.
What are the many types of plate movements?
Transform, Divergent, Convergent are types of tectonic plate movements

Which two types of plate movement produce the biggest earthquakes?
continental and oceanic
What is a transverse plate?
There are three types of movements for Plate Tectonics and transversion is when two plates slide past each other, causing earthquakes. The plates aren't lifted or submerged in transversion like they do in conversions and diversions.
Do earthquakes occur in plate interiors?
yes earthquakes happen at all types of plate boundaries but most of them occur at destructive, collisional, and conservative plate boundaries
Are earthquakes divergent convergent or transform?
Earthquakes occur at all three types of plate boundary.
Types of plate movements?
Tectonic movement.
What are three types of earthquakes caused by plate motion types from weakest to strongest?
divergent, transform, convergent
What stress causes earthquakes?
There are three types of stress tension, compression, and shearing they all cause earthquakes.
What plate boundary do earthquakes usually occur on?
earthquakes only happen at the edge of tectonic plates because of them moving which causes the 'quake' so there are never any BIG earthquakes in the UK because it is in the middle of a tectonic plate
