What happens to rocks when they undergo stress?
When the tension (stress) is great enough, they will fracture or deform.
A force that changes a rocks shape or volume is called?
The force that changes a rock's shape or volume is called stress. This can occur due to factors such as compression, tension, or shear forces acting on the rock.
Which type of stress produces most crustal deformation?
Tectonic stress, caused by the movement of Earth's tectonic plates, produces the most significant crustal deformation. This stress results in the formation of features like mountains, faults, and earthquakes as the Earth's crust responds to the forces generated by tectonic plate interactions.
How is the stress in the southern part of the San Andreas fault system different from the stress in the northern part?
The stress in the southern part of the San Andreas fault system is mainly accumulating due to the relative motion between the Pacific Plate and the North American Plate. In contrast, the northern part experiences a more complex system of faults and stress due to the interaction of multiple tectonic plates in the region, including the Pacific, North American, and Gorda Plates.
What is stress that pulls on crust called?
the type of stress that pulls the crust is called TENSION.
Can rock undergo compression tension and shear stress?
yes it can
Can rock undergo compression tension and shear stress all at once and explain?
Yes, it is possible for a rock to undergo compression, tension, and shear stress simultaneously. Compression occurs when the rock is squeezed together, tension occurs when it is being pulled apart, and shear stress occurs when different parts of the rock are sliding past each other in opposite directions. These stresses can result from various geological processes acting on the rock simultaneously, leading to complex deformation patterns within the rock.
Can rocks undergo compression tension and shear stress all at once?
no because its not possible unless both canceled out and you left with no force
What is the synonyms for pressure?
compression, tension, or stress
List the three types of stress that occur in earth's crust?
the 3 kinds of stress are compression,tension, and shearing
What are some types of stress in rocks?
The three main types of stress in a rock are shearing, tension, and compression.
Why was the crack an effect of tension and not compression stress?
A crack is caused by tension not compression because tension pulls matter apart while compression pushes matter together
Compression tension and shearing are three types of?
stress
