Explain how stress causes movement at faults (earthquakes).

SAT

sveticcg [70]3 years ago
5 0
Faults are places in the Earth's crust where different tectonic plates meet and grind against each other.  The tectonic plates continuously move extremely slowly, but at faults, there is great stress caused by this movement.  This is due to the friction between the two tectonic plates, which are usually moving in opposite directions. When this stress is released and the tectonic plates "allow" each other to move a little past each other, the resulting movement is what we like to call and earthquake.

Which observation is inconsistent with the ideal gas law.
prisoha [69]

The observation that is inconsistent with the ideal gas equation is; "When temperature is held constant and volume increases, the pressure increases."

Boyle's law describes the relationship between the pressure and volume of ideal gas. Boyle's law states that, the volume of a given mass of gas is inversely proportional to its pressure at constant temperature.

Hence, the statement that "When temperature is held constant and volume increases, the pressure increases." does not agree with Boyle's law therefore it is inconsistent with the ideal gas law.
