What is a movement in the ground caused by a sudden release of energy under the Earth's crust?
A shift in the earth's crust to relieve pressure, and therefore release energy, is an earthquake.
Is an earthquake any seismic vibration of earth caused by the slow release of energy?
False. An earthquake is a seismic wave caused by a sudden release of energy.
Earthquake release energy in the form of?
Earthquakes release energy in the form of seismic waves, which travel outward from the earthquake source. These waves cause the ground to shake and can lead to destruction and damage to buildings and infrastructure. The amount of energy released by an earthquake is measured on the Richter scale.
How many megatons of energy did the 1960 Chile earthquake release?
The 1960 Chile earthquake, also known as the Valdivia earthquake, released energy equivalent to about 1,000 megatons of TNT, making it the most powerful earthquake ever recorded.
What is an earthquake's point of energy release?
An earthquake's point of energy release is called the focus or hypocenter. This is the exact location within the Earth where the seismic waves originate due to the sudden movement of rocks along a fault line. The point directly above the focus on the Earth's surface is called the epicenter.
What is the effect of a sudden release of energy in earth's crust?
An earthquake, most likely
Is the shifting of earth's CRUST WITH THE RELEASE OF ENERGY A P wave?
no it's an earthquake.
The hypothesis that explains the release of energy during an earthquake is the?
elastic rebound theory
Is the shifting of earths crust with the release of energy is a p wave?
no it's an earthquake.
Is the shifting of the earths crust with the release of energy a p wave?
no it's an earthquake.
What is the amount of energy release by an earthquake?
it is half the height (in metres) times 3
Is the shifting of the earth's crust with the release of energy a p wave?
no it's an earthquake.
