The three main type of stress are : Compression, Tension, and Shear stress. Compression squeezes and shortens rock while Tension stretches and pulls rock, making it thinner. <span>Shear stress distorts a body by pushing parts of the body in opposite directions. Sheared rock bends, twists, or breaks apart and slides past neighboring rock. So, Compression stress is the stress that forms mountains resulting from large blocks of rock squeezing together. </span>

There are 180° degree of longitude on each side of the prime meridians
Answer:
Option (4)
Explanation:
Seismic P and S waves are generated during an earthquake that has the potential to propagate through the interior of the earth. P waves are also known as the primary waves and they move in a compression and extension way in their direction of propagation. S waves are shear waves. This P waves travel faster than the S waves and can travel in both solid as well as in liquid. Whereas the S wave can travel only through solids. They get absorbed when they reach the core-mantle boundary. These two waves are helpful in determining the epicenter of an earthquake by recording the arrival of these waves.
Hence, the correct answer is option (4).
