Explain how a magnitude - 8.0 earthquake could be classified as a low-intensity earthquake?

hey


How would you explain an earthquake in easy English?

An earthquake tends to be described by the visible damagecriteria according to the Mercalli scale or by the amount of energy released according to the Richter or Moment Magnitude scales.


Explain why its impossible to ever really know the materials compose earth's interior?

Scientists have determined what the interior of the earth is like through analyzing seismic or earthquake wave


How can an understanding of wave motion help explain what happens during an earthquake?

Because the wave motion (also known as seismic waves) determine how minor or major an Earthquake is. This is because seismic waves are caused by tension in the Earth's crust due to our tetonic plates rubbing together irregularly.


How many minutes after the earthquake in Japan did the tsunami hit?

A tsunami cannot be precisely predicted even if the right magnitude of an earthquake occurs in the right location. Systems that uses bottom pressure sensors attached to buoys can successfully predict a tsunami. No one yet knows why a tsunami may or may not occur after an earthquake. It is not necessary that a Tsunami follows an earthquake. It only happens when focus of earthquake is in the sea bed. Since earthquakes are caused by seismic waves produced due to collisions of the tectonic plates, these waves high disturbance in the sea water and hence the water takes the form of Tsunamis.

Explain the difference between magnitude and intensity of an earthquakes?

The magnitude of an earthquake is the amount of energy released at the source of the earthquake and is measured by a seismograph. Intensity is shaking strength of an earthquake at a particular location.

Explain why size is the only factor that determines the stars absolute magnitude?

The absolute magnitude is a measure of the star's luminosity hence the smaller the size the less the absolute magnitude.


Explain how you could change the pitch and frequency of the sound of a guitar?

Loosening the string will LOWER the frequency, tightening it will RAISE the frequency.


Explain high and low pitch frequency's?

The higher the frequency of the sound wave, the higher the pitch.
