Its either
it increases fluid pressure and reduces frictioniit increases the rate of seismic strain accumulationit causes fractures to form in metamorphic and igneous rocksit increases the slip rate of the faults
Lightning does not directly cause earthquakes. Earthquakes are typically caused by the movement of tectonic plates or volcanic activity. Lightning is a discharge of atmospheric electricity within a thunderstorm that does not have an impact on the Earth's crust to cause earthquakes.
It depends on the context in which "wastes" is being used. As a plural noun, "wastes" can refer to things that are discarded or unwanted. As a verb, "wastes" can mean to use or expend carelessly or to cause to be lost.
no
No, hippos do not cause earthquakes. Earthquakes are caused by the movement of tectonic plates beneath the Earth's surface, not by any actions of hippos or other animals.
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.
Liquid wastes should not be dumped down a sink because they can cause back-up. This liquid waste could also break pipes.
Earthquakes are one (but not the only) cause of tsunamis.
Earthquakes have a geological cause.
There are a few ways this can happen. First, earthquakes are associated with movement along faults. This movement can alter the surface terrain. The shaking of an earthquake can also cause wet soil and sediment to behave like a liquid.
Lightning does not directly cause earthquakes. Earthquakes are typically caused by the movement of tectonic plates or volcanic activity. Lightning is a discharge of atmospheric electricity within a thunderstorm that does not have an impact on the Earth's crust to cause earthquakes.
No. See the related question below for what does cause earthquakes.
Being gay cannot cause earthquakes.
No, Emily does not cause earthquakes. Earthquakes are natural phenomena caused by the movement of tectonic plates beneath the Earth's surface. Emily, as an individual, does not have the ability to cause earthquakes.
Yes. The actions of people can cause earthquakes with detonation of explosives or nuclear weapons.
earthquakes can cause tsunamis, landslides, flooding, and volcanos
It can cause earthquakes, volcanoes, oceanic trenches, mountains, tsunamis, and subduction.
Earthquakes can cause a volcano to erupt.
