What causes the earths crust to rise and fall?
The sudden vibration in the plates inside the crust causes the earths crust to rise & fall.
Do compression and tension affect the thickness of earth's crust?
Compression and tension can indeed affect the thickness of the Earth's crust. Compression can thicken the crust by folding and faulting, while tension can cause stretching and thinning of the crust through processes like rifting and faulting. These tectonic forces play a significant role in shaping the Earth's crust over geological time scales.
Why is the stress the earths crust?
The earth's crust is not stress
What forces squeezes or pull the rock in earths crust?
The primary forces that act on rocks in Earth's crust are compression and tension. Compression occurs when rocks are squeezed together, often leading to folding and faulting. Tension is when rocks are pulled apart, creating fractures and rifts. These forces are generated by tectonic plate movements and can result in various geological features.
What forms the elevated part of the earths crust?
continental crust
What causes stress earths crust?
The movement in earths plates create powerful forces that pull or squeeze the rock in the crust.
What is the answer to Earths surface can be changed by natural forces such as?
Umm, I think the crust.
What is a change in the volume or shape of earths crust?
Deformation
How does stress in the crust change earths crust?
it means earthquakes will happen more often
What is vertical Positioning of the Earths crust so that gravitational an buoyont forces balance called?
Isostasy
Which forces responsible for earths crust and lithosphere floating on the mantle?
convection currents in the upper mantle
What are three events that change the earths crust slowly?
Erosian, weathering.
Any change in the volume or shape of the earths crust called?
after shock
How does stress change earths crust?
It causes it to deform - this deformation is called "strain".
How does tension change the shape earths crust?
because when it acts on the surface it stretches the rock to make craters or " dents" on the crust.
How does tension change the shape of earths crust?
by pulling it making it thinner in the middle
What is the size of the earths crust?
The Earths crust is approximately 650 km deep.
