7. What type of stress is developed when the rock is squeezed until it folds or breaks? A. Compression B. Tension C. Shearing D. Gravitational
8. What type of stress causes the Earth's crust to be pulled apart leading to the formation of faults? A. Tension B. Gravitational C. Compression D. Normal
9. A force that acts on rocks to change its shape or volume is called A fault B. friction C. fold D. stress
10. The following situations cause movement of the ground except A. when rocks inside the earth suddenly slip. B. when energy inside the Earth is released. C. when shaking starts from the focus. D. when energy is absorbed by the rock layers.
11. What keeps the rocks along the fault connected to one another? A. Seismic waves B. Minerals C. Friction D. Energy
12. What does stress do to the rocks within the Earth's crust? A. It takes energy out of the rocks. C. It adds energy to the rocks. B. It adds volume to the rocks. D. It makes rocks harder.
13. What will happen when friction between two opposite plates is high? A. It will attract the other plates creating a larger plate. B. It will change the composition of the Earth's crust. C. The more the plates will stick together and won't move. D. A stress builds up within rock layers until they break and separate.
14. Why can't geologists predict when shaking of the ground occurs? A. There are too much data to interpret. B. There are too many faults to monitor. C. They need to know where all previous earthquakes occurred. D. They are not sure when and where stress will be released along a fauit.
