Do mountains keep the earth stable from shakes for example during earthquakes?
No ,mountains do not keep earth from shaking ,greatest earthquakes happen around the mountains like in Himalayas also mountains are created by the movement of the tectonic plates which create earthquakes.Just because the mountains are themselves stabilized by isostacy does not mean that the mountains stabilize the earth or the crust by isostacy. Prof David A Young.No self respecting geologists would claim that mountains keep earth from shaking.
Why are earthquakes called earthquakes?
Earthquakes are called so because they are caused by the shaking of the ground due to the movement of tectonic plates beneath the Earth's surface. The term "earth" refers to the ground, and "quake" refers to shaking or trembling, thus combining to describe the natural phenomenon.
How much of the earths surface do mountains cover?
How much of the earth's surface do mountains cover? it is 99% of the earth
What causes the shaking of the earths surface caused?
The shaking of the Earth's surface, known as an earthquake, is caused by the release of energy from the Earth's crust due to tectonic plate movement. This movement can occur along fault lines, where stress builds up and is suddenly released, creating seismic waves that result in shaking.
What is the sudden shaking of the earth called?
The sudden shaking of the earth is called an earthquake. It is caused by the release of energy in the Earth's crust, leading to seismic waves that make the ground shake. Earthquakes can vary in size and intensity, with some causing significant damage and loss of life.

sudden and strong shaking of the earth?
earth quake
What shaking of the earth caused by the release of energy is a?
An earthquake is shaking of the earth caused by the release of energy from within the Earth's crust. It occurs when there is a sudden slip along a fault line, resulting in ground shaking and sometimes surface rupture.
How is a erosion formed?
the earth shaking
Does shaking of the earth cause any damage?
Yes. A shaking of the earth is call an earthquake. In some cases earthquakes can be absolutely devastating.
Do mountains prevent earthquake shocks?
Mountains do not prevent earthquakes, in fact mountains were created by the occurrence of earthquakes.
What is seismic shaking-?
"Seismic" refers to an earthquake, so seismic shaking is the shaking motion of the earth (and things on it) caused by an earthquake. There are different waves that emanate from the hypocenter, or point of origin.
What is the shaking or movement of the Earth called?
an earthquake
What is earth shaking event?
because of earthquakes
What is the sudden stress changes in the earth that cause ground shaking?
earth quakes
What is the sudden stress changes in the earth that cause ground shaking.?
earth quakes
What is the earthquack?
due to techtonic disterbence ,shaking of earth
