yes in 1985 there was an earthquake in Tasmania and it was 4.8
Yes! several especially in the last five years!
There is no absolute top to the Richter scale, although the largest earthquake ever recorded by mankind was the Valdivia earthquake in Chile that was the equivalent of 9.5 on the Richter scale in 1960. While no earthquake any stronger has ever been recorded, the impact that caused the Chicxulub crater in the Yucatan Peninsula about 65 million years ago has been calculated to have been the equivalent of about 13.0 on the Richter scale.
Many bridges survive earthquakes. Most earthquakes are small or moderate and do very little damage.
Short term predictions of earthquake behaviour or even earthquake predictions in general have not occured yet. Many even question if earthquakes will ever be able to be predicted. Even the earthquakes that have supposedly been predicted correctly have controversy behind the method
No. The largest ever recorded was in 1965 in Chile and that was a 9.5.
There have been very small earthquakes in Tasmania in the past, but generally, earthquakes are rare
It is the strongest earthquake that has ever been in Haiti.
There has ever been an earthquake in Edmonton.
No, the highest ever recorded earthquake registered at 9.5
no
No, but there has been an Earthquake of magnitude 5.6 north of Sydney in Newcastle.
yes, in 2010 an earthquake happened with a magnitude of 2.2
no
The youngest child to have ever been born during an earthquake is any newborn who is born during an earthquake. It is unlikely that this should ever change as all babies who are born, whether during earthquakes or otherwise, are all newborns.
No there has never been an earthquake with a magnitude of 10.0 that has ever been recorded. The largest recorded to date was the magnitude 9.5 earthquake that occurred in Valdivia Chile in 1960.
Yes, there have been earthquakes which have occurred in Mali.
No, the strongest earthquake ever recorded was in Chile in 1960 and it was a 9.5. It is unlikely for a 10.0 in the next 50 years, but it is expected that it will happen, before 2300.
