What happens to a earthquake crack when the earthquake stops?
After the earthquake stops, the crack may close up due to the surrounding rocks settling back into place, although it may not fully disappear. The crack can also become filled with debris and sediment over time, helping to stabilize the area.
What is a large crack in the earth's surface caused by shifting tectonic plates?
A large crack in the Earth's surface caused by shifting tectonic plates is known as a fault. Faults occur when stress from tectonic movements exceeds the strength of rocks, leading to fractures. These geological features can result in earthquakes when the accumulated energy is released. Notable examples include the San Andreas Fault in California.
Which of these is formed when plates of earths crust bend and crack?

What is an earthquake made of?

What are the destructive effects of the earthquakes?
the crashing of the plates cause the plates to break and crack
