To get the Earth to move (quake), much force is needed. Pressure is force per unit area.
Transform boundaries have earthquakes that are transverse in nature. These boundaries occur when two tectonic plates slide horizontally past each other, causing friction and pressure to build up until it is released as an earthquake.
Aristotle didn't know the existence of earthquakes as there was no earthquake in the world at his time. However he would believe that they were cause by many people farting simultaneously if earthquakes existed back then.
A volcanic eruption starts with the build up of pressure in the magma chamber. A bulge in the crater may indicate a impending eruption. Earthquakes may also precede an eruption.
The Earth's crust is a series of 'plates' moving on a molten surface. These plates slide against each other, and friction causes pressure to build up where the plates meet. Eventually, the pressure becomes so great that the plates 'snap' past each other. This releases the built-up pressure which we feel as tremors.
Yes, subduction can lead to earthquakes. When tectonic plates collide and one plate slides beneath the other, the stress and pressure from this movement can build up and eventually be released in the form of an earthquake. Subduction zones are known for producing some of the largest and most powerful earthquakes that have occurred on Earth.
, Earthquakes occurs along fault lines, fault lines are where tectonic plates meet. There is a build up of pressure when the plates converge ( move in and hit each other). When the pressure is to great it is released in an earthquake. Hope this helps.
The strongest earthquakes occur at convergent plate boundaries, where plates collide and one is forced beneath the other in a process known as subduction. The resulting intense pressure and friction along the boundaries can lead to very powerful earthquakes.

To release pressure.
Tectonic plates build up pressure and when the pressure gets to strong they collide. This causes the earth to rumble, which is an earthquake. Massive underwater earthquakes may cause tsunamis.
Tectonic plates build up stress between each other and suddenly release decades or even centuries of stress, causing earthquakes. Volcanoes that have lots of pressure built up can also cause earthquakes.
Earthquakes do not exactly erupt. Earthquakes are caused by the movement the Earth's tectonic plates. Yes, Earthquakes can contribute to the eruptions of Volcanoes because when one plate goes under the other water could be taken with it down into the Mantle. The water and sometimes air when is in the mantle is forced to find an exit and those exits are Volcanoes. When they go into the Volcano pressure builds up and the Volcano erupts. So really Earthquakes are caused by the movement of the Earths tectonic plates while Volcanoes are caused by a build up of pressure in the Earths Mantle.
it can help scientists detect movement and the build up of pressure along a fault.
