Question

2. Where do the forces store within the Earth’s interior? *

a) nature

b) fault

c) rocks

d) epicentre
​

Answer 1

The forces within the Earth’s interior are stored on rocks.

Explanation:

The interior of the Earth contains a lot of heat energy. This heat is transported from its interior towards  the surface, which helps cool the Earth. There are other forces like the geophysical energy, thermal energy and gravitational energy between the various layers of the Earth. These forces are stored within the rocks in the Earth's interior. This energy cools when it gets dissipated on the Earth's surface, which helps in the formation of the Earth's crust. Without this transfer of energy, the surface would be a plain flat surface.

Option C is the answer.

Answer 2

Explanation:

Among the four options given in question statement, the correct option is Option C.

The forces within the Earth's interior are stored within the rocks.

The surface beneath the earth is divided into several layers and each layer has his own energy. The major portion of energy which is the heat energy is stored inside the rocky layer and at times the earth dissipates this heat energy to its upper layers. An earthquake is also caused by the disturbance in earth interior energy
