What else can I help you with?
Does shearing forces push rocks from different but not opposite directions?
Yes, shearing forces push rocks in different directions along a plane, causing them to slide past each other horizontally. This type of stress typically occurs at transform plate boundaries where tectonic plates slide horizontally past each other.
What kind of Plate boundary has shallow earthquakes?
Shallow earthquakes typically occur at divergent plate boundaries, where two tectonic plates are moving away from each other, or at transform boundaries, where two plates slide past each other horizontally. These earthquakes are typically found at depths ranging from 0 to 70 km below the surface.
What are conservative plate boundaries?
Conservative plate boundaries, also known as transform boundaries, are areas where tectonic plates slide past each other horizontally. This movement can cause earthquakes as the plates grind against each other. An example of a conservative plate boundary is the San Andreas Fault in California.
What is the term for the plates that neither push or pull but they slip in a side by side motion?
Transform faults are the boundaries between two tectonic plates that slide past each other horizontally, neither creating nor destroying lithosphere. The motion along these faults is usually horizontal and can result in earthquakes.
What kind of force occurs in the San Andreas fault?
The San Andreas Fault is a strike-slip fault, where two tectonic plates move horizontally past each other. The main force causing movement along the fault is the tectonic forces generated by the motion of the Pacific Plate relative to the North American Plate.
What kind of plate boundary results in offsetting surface features?
transform boundaries
What kind of force occurs in San Andreas fault?
transform boundary
What kind of landforms are formed at transform plate boundaries?
there are many landforms such as volcanoes moutains little islands and trenches may also form at the transformation plate boundaries. i think this is the answer
What kind of forces is involved in boxing?
Impulsive force
What are the plate boundaries?
Divergent, convergent, and transform. Divergent is where they move apart, convergent is where they move together, while transform is where they slide past each other. hi im kind im a different person
What kind of boundaries can cause earthquakes and volcanoes?
Earthquakes can occur at any type of plate boundary, but the most powerful earthquakes tend to occur at convergent boundaries and at transform boundaries.
Is chemical energy an example of a force?
No. When there is an energy, there is often also some kind of force involved. However, you should be careful to distinguish the two. An energy is NOT a force, and a force is NOT an energy.
Does shearing forces push rocks from different but not opposite directions?
Yes, shearing forces push rocks in different directions along a plane, causing them to slide past each other horizontally. This type of stress typically occurs at transform plate boundaries where tectonic plates slide horizontally past each other.
Name 3 plate boundaries?
divergent, transform and convergent
Which kind of fault is a result f a pulling force?
The kind of fault you may be contemplating about is a transform fault which occurs like all earth quakes when the Earth's tectonic plates move as sea currents change there appearance. A transform fault is the force of two surfaces rubbing across each other creating huge earth quakes like the ones of 1906 and 1989 in San Andreas.
When an earthquake is shearing what does that mean?
When an Earthquake is shearing two plates from transform boundaries are sliding past one another. For example when I rub my hands past one another that is kind of like what is happening when shearing occurs.
What kind of science is involved in using a hula-hoop?
Theoretical Mechanics - the branch of Physics that describes mechanical force and motion.
