What is the force that pulls rock apart?
Tensile stress.
What is the force that pulls an object apart?
The force that pulls an object apart is called tension. Tension occurs when a material is stretched or pulled in opposite directions, causing it to become elongated.
What is the name of the force that pulls things forward?
The force that pulls things forward is called "thrust."
What is the Stress force that pulls rock apart?
Tensile stress is the force that pulls rock apart, causing it to break or fracture. This type of stress occurs when rocks are stretched in opposite directions, leading to the formation of cracks or faults in the rock.
A force that pulls objects toward each other is called?
gravity is a force that pulls object toward each other
What is the force that stretches or pulls apart the crust of the earth?
Tension stretches or pulls apart the crust.
The stress force that pulls on the crust where two plates are moving apart is called .?
tension
What is the force that stretches or pull apart the crust called?
When there is a divergent boundary, regardless if the plates are ocean-ocean or continental-continental, tensional stress pulls on the crust. Rocks have weaker tensional strength than compressive strength, so they are easier to pull apart.
What is the stress force that pulls on the crust where two plates are moving apart?
it may be gravity
Streches or pulls apart the crust?
tension
What is the force that pulls rock apart?
Tensile stress.
What is stress that pulls on crust called?
the type of stress that pulls the crust is called TENSION.
What is stress that pulls on the rocks of the crust called?
Stress that acts to pull materials (including rocks of the crust) apart is known as tensile stress.
What is the force that stretches or pulls apart the earths crust?
Generally materials that fly apart are being pushed rather than pulled. We could devise a mechanism that pulls materials apart - for example, if we attach two hooks and pull them on winches in opposite directions. In that case we would describe the force as mechanical in nature. But it is more likely that things get pushed apart by their own internal pressure.
What is the force that pulls an object apart?
The force that pulls an object apart is called tension. Tension occurs when a material is stretched or pulled in opposite directions, causing it to become elongated.
What is stress that pulls on crust?
the type of stress that pulls the crust is called TENSION.
What is the stress force that pulls on the crust and thins rock in the middle is?
The stress force that pulls on the crust and thins rock in the middle is called tension. Tensional stress occurs when two plates move away from each other, creating faults where rocks are pulled apart and thinned in the middle. This process is often associated with the formation of rift valleys and mid-ocean ridges.
