What else can I help you with?
Theory that states that earths crust and upper mantle are broken into sections which move around on a spcial layer of th emantle?
plate tectonics
A break in the crust along which rock moves?
This is called a fault.== ==
What happens if there is no core and mantle?
the earth will lose it's gravitational field or the crust and the outer core will start to move inwards because of the earths gravitational field
What is a crack in the rocks of the earths crust where no movement has occurred?
A crack in the rocks of the earth's crust where no movement has occurred is known as a joint. Joints are fractures in the rocks that do not show any displacement and are caused by stress or pressure within the earth's crust. They often provide pathways for fluids to move through the rocks.
How do vibrations move through earth's crust?
There are three types of vibrations:- Primary waves, Secondary waves and long waves. Primary waves can move through solid and liquid. Secondary waves move through only solids and long waves can only move along the surface of the earth's crust.
When earthquake happen when these sections of earth crust move?
earthquakes happen when these sections of earths crust move
What are cracks in earths crust that move or shift?
Tectonic plates.
How does water move through and on top of earths rock and soil layer?
Through condensation and evaporation.
What is the last step of a earthquake?
the final step of an earhquake is tge energy takes the form of vibrations that move through earths crust
What layer of earth is made up of plates that move?
The earths crust
Earthquakes happen when what section of the earths crust move?
The tectonic plates.
Why is the earths crust always moving?
Simple- Convection in the mantle causes mantle to slowly move, and it pushes against the crust. As it does this, the tectonic plates move.
In what ways do plates in the earths crust move?
they move in all sorts of ways like the bottom and the top lol :}
Do some part of the earths crust move up 12 cm per year?
no
What causes earthquaques?
A move in the earths crust. The tectonic plates push together causing the ground to move. Its also the same with tsunamis, except under water instead of land. Hope that helped :)
What happened if the earths crust move suddenly along fault?
The result is commonly known as an earthquake.
What happens to earths surface as huge pieces of crust move?
most times earthquakes occur
