What leads to earthquakes along a fault?
Earthquakes occur along a fault when there is a sudden release of built-up stress in the Earth's crust. This stress is caused by tectonic plate movement, which leads to the rocks along the fault slipping past each other, generating seismic waves. The sudden release of energy during this movement is what causes the ground to shake and results in an earthquake.
Where is the US is an earthquake most likely to occur?
Along any fault zone.
What geologic events occur at transform boundries?
Earthquakes
What effect Large sudden rock movements occur along a fault?
The effect is generally known as an earthquake.
Small foreshocks that precede a major earthquake can occur .?
Small foreshocks that precede a major earthquake can occur
Why do volcanoes and earthquakes occur on plate boundries?
earthquakes occur because plates move and they over lap causing an earthquake.
When does an earthquake occur along a fault?
plates of the earth crash into each other along faults causing an earthquake
Where most earthquake's occur?
Along fault lines.
WHAT CONDITIONS WOULD BE NEcessary for an earthquake or volcanic eruptions to occur outside the these zones?
I am sorry but we can't answer because we don't know the zones in your question.
What is interpolate earthquake?
Earthquakes that occur along plate boundaries
What leads to earthquakes along a fault?

The sudden release of energy during this movement is what causes the ground to shake and results in an earthquake.
Earthquake foci can be used to mark the boundries of what earth features?
Earthquake foci can be used to mark the boundaries of tectonic plate boundaries, as earthquakes often occur along these boundaries due to the movement of plates. They can also indicate the location of faults, fractures in the Earth's crust where tectonic stresses are released through seismic activity.
Where does an earthquake always occur?
Along a plate boundary or a fault line.
What percent of the worlds earthquake occur along the ring of fire?
90
Which type of fault do most earthquake occur along?
strike slip
Where is the US is an earthquake most likely to occur?
Along any fault zone.
Why do earthquakes occur more often in some places that in others?
They occur because of nature. Volcanic eruptions signal off an earthquake because normally a volcanic eruption and an earthquake are on a fault line/edge of a tectonic plate.
