Consider the following geological phenomena:
1. Development of a fault
2. Movement along a fault
3. Impact produced by a volcanic eruption
4. Folding of rocks
Which of the above cause earthquakes?
1, 2 and 3
2 and 4
1, 3 and 4
1, 2, 3 and 4
Development of a fault: Yes, the development of a fault can cause earthquakes. When stress along a fault exceeds the strength of the rocks, it can result in the sudden release of energy, leading to an earthquake.
Movement along a fault: Yes, the movement along a fault, particularly the sudden release of accumulated stress, can cause earthquakes. This is often associated with fault slippage.
Impact produced by a volcanic eruption: Yes, volcanic activity can cause earthquakes. The movement of magma beneath the Earth's surface can induce stress and lead to seismic activity.
Folding of rocks: Yes, the folding of rocks can also contribute to the buildup of stress and potential earthquake activity. The release of stress during rock folding can cause seismic events.
Therefore, the correct answer is option 4: 1, 2, 3, and 4.
