A rock burst differs from squeezing in being
Answer: C
Correct answer: sudden and violent rather than slow
Both are stress problems but they differ in the manner of failure. Squeezing is a slow plastic inward movement of weak rock, developing over hours or days and giving warning through convergence measurements. A rock burst is the sudden brittle failure of strong rock, throwing fragments violently with no warning, and it is far more dangerous for that reason.
