GEOLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -Tension-the stress force that pulls the crust, stretching rock so that it becomes thinner in the middle. Compression-the stress force that squeezes rock until it folds or breaks. Deformation-any change in the volume or shape of Earth’s crust. Fault-a break in Earth’s crust where slabs of crust slip past each other.

Detailed explanation-2: -Tension: Stress which occurs when rock pulls apart or gets longer. Shear Stress: Stress which occurs when tectonic plates move past each other causing rock to twist or change shape.

Detailed explanation-3: -Compression is the most common stress at convergent plate boundaries. Rocks that are pulled apart are under tension. Rocks under tension lengthen or break apart. Tension is the major type of stress at divergent plate boundaries.

Detailed explanation-4: -10.6b: Tensional forces cause stretching and thinning of the rocks, usually accompanied by tensional faults. Tensional forces common along extensional plate boundaries such as mid-ocean ridges.

Detailed explanation-5: -Tensional stresses cause a rock to elongate, or pull apart. Shear stresses causes rocks to slip past each other.
