Answer:

Mid-oceanic ridge and a ridge

Explaination:

The mid ocean ridge is where seafloor spreading takes place along a divergent plate boundary.

They are usually formed by plate tectonics with a depth of about 2,600 meters (8,500 ft) and rises about two kilometers above the deepest portion of an ocean basin.

A rift represents a lowland region that forms where Earth's tectonic plates move apart, or rift. An example is the Rhine rift valley in Germany.

How do rock fractures cause vibrations?
Andrews [41]

Answer:

Earth seismic waves creates vibrations and makes the plate move, it leads to splitting and breaking of the rocks.

Explanation:

  • First, when the crust is broken due to forces of folding and faulting processes, the stress extends towards the rocks and which if prolonged can lead to snapping and breaking of the rocks in their new position.
  • This process leads to vibration due to the release of the seismic waves. The fault created a fracture in the rocks and thus energy is released from within.
