What else can I help you with?
What is it called when pressure builds up in a rock or when other pieces of the Earth's crust collide?
Convergence of tectonic plates, which can cause earth quakes and tsunamis.
What are moving pieces under the earths surface that form the earths crust?
Tectonic plates are the moving pieces under the Earth's surface that form the Earth's crust. These plates float on the semi-fluid asthenosphere and interact with each other through processes like subduction, spreading, and collision, which contribute to the shaping of Earth's surface features.
What is compression in plate tectonics?
it is the movement of the earths crust. it moves inwards towards other plates so the earths crust moves upwards therefore forming mountains, volcanoes etc
What is a fault the science kind?
crack in earths crust where two plates are sliding past each other
What metal is found as itself in the earths crust?
Iron , Aluminium and Copper Can Be Found , Also Gold Can Be Found Uncombined in the Earths Crust .
Break in earths crust where pieces of the crust move relative to each other?
A fault is a break in the Earth's crust where pieces of the crust move relative to each other. This movement can cause earthquakes as stress builds up along the fault line and is released suddenly. Faults are common in regions where tectonic plates interact and are essential for understanding earthquake hazards.
What is the opening called in the earths crust called through which lava gases and other pieces of rock erupt?
A volcano is the opening called in the earths crust called through which lava gases and other pieces of rock erupt.
What is it called when pressure builds up in a rock or when other pieces of the Earth's crust collide?
Convergence of tectonic plates, which can cause earth quakes and tsunamis.
The Earth's crust is broken into pieces that rub and bump against each other The movement of these crust pieces causes what to happen?
Earthquakes
Where can you find minerals other than earths crust?
the oceanic plate
How miners been able to dig into Earth's crust?
miners have been able to dig into the earths crust by big machines and other huge tools and they have only dig ed 2 miles into the earths crust
How does a strike slip fault lead to an earthquake?
An earthquake occurs deep in the earths crust caused by the displacement of two faults in the crust. Directly above the fault on the earths surface is called the epicenter. Which shows the aftermath of the strike slip fault that occured in the earths crust. So the strike slip fault is the effect of the displacement of the crust at that point deep in the earths crust which causes an earthquake to happen whenever there is a displacement of two faults.
What is the movement of rock pieces and other mineralson the earths surfaces?
Erosion.
What are moving pieces under the earths surface that form the earths crust?
Tectonic plates are the moving pieces under the Earth's surface that form the Earth's crust. These plates float on the semi-fluid asthenosphere and interact with each other through processes like subduction, spreading, and collision, which contribute to the shaping of Earth's surface features.
Why Are Volcannoes Found Where They Are?
majority of valcanoes follow the edges of the tectonic plates, which are the weaker parts of earths crust, therefore volcanoes form durin the crust giving away to the pressure built up. other volcaoes form other places due to weak parts of earths crust
Why do scientist thinks earths core contain iron?
other orbiting bodies contain more iron than earths crust does
What is a vent in the earths crust from which lava and other materials are ejected called?
A vent in the Earth's crust from which lava and other materials are ejected is called a volcano.
