No. Volcanoes and earthquakes, in simple terms, are produced by movements of Earth's tectonic plate and in the semisolid rocks of the mantle. They have absolutely nothing to do with tropical storms.

Can Landslides and mudslides result from both volcanoes and earthquakes. True or false?

True earthquakes and volcanoes can cause landslides.


Why does an earthquake zone have earthquakes if no volcanoes are there?

Volcanoes are not the primary cause of earthquakes. Most earthquakes result from the stresses created by tectonic plates moving past or against one another. At transform boundaries there is no mechanism to produce volcanoes, but the movement of the plates will still cause earthquakes. Stresses within a plate can also cause earthquakes.


Do earthquakes explode like volcanoes?

No, earthquakes and volcanoes are different geological events. Earthquakes are caused by the movement of tectonic plates beneath the Earth's surface, while volcanoes erupt due to magma or gas buildup beneath the Earth's crust. While both can cause destruction, earthquakes do not explode like volcanoes.


How earthquakes volcanoes and mountain's formation are related to plate tectonics?

Earthquakes, volcanoes and mountains are formed via plate tectonics. When the large continental plates collide, they either cause temporary earthquakes, or more permanent features such as volcanoes and mountains.


Can volcanoes cause earthquakes?

Yes, volcano eruptions can cause earthquakes; they can also be caused by earthquakes or occur at the same time.Yes. Earthquakes are common around active volcanoes. They are usually triggered by the movement of magma beneath the earth and the fracturing of rock that results. However, volcanic earthquakes are not very large and generally do not cause much damage directly.

How does a Tropical Storm affect the lithosphere?

Tropical storms can cause erosion.


How high does it have to be on the Richter scale to cause a volcano eruption?

Earthquakes do not cause volcanoes. However, magma moving to the surface rapidly can produce tremors. Volcanoes can cause earthquakes, but not vise-versa.


What primary cause of volcanoes and earthquakes?

Tectonic plates

Is an earthquake stronger or a volcano?

Earthquakes and volcanoes are two different things and cannot be compared easily. However, volcanoes can cause earthquakes and vice versa.
