It affects the u.s because the us gets alot of imports from Japan and with the tsunami and everything destroyed, they probably wont import the goods any more.
Additionally, the damage and casualties from this earthquake and it's resulting tsunami help us understand and better prepare ourselves for a similar event that could possibly occur in the Pacific Northwest. Just off the coast of Oregon & Washington is a similar earthquake hazard called the Cascadia Subduction Zone, which is capable of producing the same type of tsunami inducing earthquake. Researchers have estimated that this area of our Pacific Northwest ruptures every 240 years on average, but the last time was 1700, so we could be overdue for a similar event on our side of the pacific.
It depends on where it hits. In 1965 when there was an earthquake in Alaska northern CA and Oregon experienced a tsunami. The city of Eureka, CA had it hit and wash out docks, boats, and other things along the coast there.
a lot of pain and mess
The damage due to buildings and infrastructure in the March 2011 earthquake, tsunami, and resulting fires and explosions is estimated over $180 billion or 3 percent of Japan's annual economic output.Other estimates up to US $300 billion for reconstruction excluding costs caused by the Fukushima nuclear accident but the total cost to Japan is probably much higher.
Because a Tsunami can travel great distances very rapidly. Out in deep sea they don't look like much just a big swell but as they near the coast they pick up speed and height.
Japan didn't receive any warning.
Art can affect us in various ways. For example, some forms of music, such as Drum and Bass, may fill us with energy.
Burping after a meal in Japan is how to show appreciation for the meal. I know, gross to us Americans, but a compliment in Japan.
Yes, An earthquake in Japan can result in a tsunami that impacts Hawaii, Guam, Alaska or the US west coast
its simple it disent affect us whatsoever
Yes!
This would create an earthquake, and a subsequent tsunami that would destroy much of the west coast and southern Alaska.
The last tsunami to hit the US was in March 2011. The same tsunami that hit Japan also caused damage in Hawaii and along the U.S. West Coast. One person in California was killed.
in the US please the only thing the US sells are cards, if you want a toy you're going to have to go to Japan or China ( I would choose China because Japan is in no condition to sell toys after the Earthquake and Tsunami
Trivially.
Both countries have tsunami warning systems and rescue teams/efforts.
Several U.S. harbors were declared disaster areas, as the tsunami not only ripped boats from their moorings, but ripped the docks free as well. Only one person in the U.S. has a death attributable to the tsunami, a man who decided to try to photograph the tsunami from a sandbar near the mouth of the Klamath River.
All countries affect the US Economy in some measure, but particularly Japan, Britain, Canada and Mexico.
This is not true. There has been a warning system for tsunamis in place around the entire Pacific Ocean since the 1940s. In fact, Japan is probably even better prepared for a tsunami than the US is. More recently, a tsunami warning system was created in the Indian Ocean.
That would be from Japan to US, (Alaska to Hokkiado).
