Do seismic waves from more powerful earthquakes travel faster than waves from weaker quakes?
yes
Which last longer tornadoes or earthquakes?
Tornadoes generally last longer, though there is a bit of overlap. Most earthquakes last less than a minute, but the most powerful earthquakes can go on for several minutes. A typical tornado may last 5 to 10 minutes, but durations may range from less than 10 seconds to, in rare cases, a few hours.
Why do longer faults produce larger earthquakes than short faults?
When a longer fault ruptures, you have movement along a longer section of the crust, and so more rock is moving.
Is lightning the strongest thing on earth?
No. In terms of energy output, major earthquakes and volcanic eruptions are far more powerful.

Can a 22wmr and 22magnum be fired from a 22lr?
No. Not only more powerful and longer, they are larger in diameter, and will not fit.
How do earthquakes differ in the east and the west?
Earthquakes in the east tend to be shallower and less frequent compared to the west. The eastern regions usually experience smaller magnitude earthquakes due to the lack of tectonic plate boundaries. In contrast, the western regions, like the Pacific Ring of Fire, are more seismically active with deeper and more powerful earthquakes caused by tectonic plate movements.
Why do longer faults usually produce longer earthquakes than short faults?
Because it is stronger!

Mali is no longer a powerful trading center because?
Mali is no longer a powerful trading centre because of modern transport.
Why do longer faults usually produce larger earthquakes than short faults?
Longer faults have a larger area of rupture, which allows more accumulated stress to be released during an earthquake. Additionally, longer faults tend to involve greater amounts of energy release due to the larger fault surface area, resulting in larger earthquakes.
