cause earthquakes happen a few seconds up to minutes and the aftermath or aftershocks could collapsed buildings destroy homes create tsunamis or volcanoes cause of the impact of earthquakes
Buildings are designed to resist loads in specific orientations. The largest load a building will normally experience and be designed to resist is it's own self weight. This will normally act vertically downwards through the building. Seismic waves introduce a significant non vertical component to this loading (whether that be shaking side to side as a result of Love Waves or the rolling motion caused by Rayligh waves) which creates torsional (twisting), shearing and bending stresses that the building would never normally experience. This can exceed the strength of the structure and cause portions of it to fail or even collapse.
There are a few ways this can happen. First, earthquakes are associated with movement along faults. This movement can alter the surface terrain. The shaking of an earthquake can also cause wet soil and sediment to behave like a liquid.
Low pressure in the tires can cause shaking, the alignment can cause shaking also.
what makes an earthquake so destructive is force. force is key. without force you have nothing. so when there is an earthquake tension pulls the earths curst together and the earth almost sneezes. when force puts the tension on the earth's crust seismometers measure the three earthquake waves...rolling waves, f waves, and lateral waves.
Violent shaking from an earthquake can cause soil and rock on slopes to fail and cause a landslide
Violent shaking can cause certain soils to flow. The shaking results from a nearby earthquake.
Earthquakes are natural phenomena that cause a sudden and violent shaking of the ground. An earthquake at sea often causes a tsunami, which is a big tidal wave.
it causes land slides
The movment does cause the rattle of buildings shaking as well.
violent storm shaking the living tree
Yes. A shaking of the earth is call an earthquake. In some cases earthquakes can be absolutely devastating.
The energy released by fault movement forms seismic waves.
No. The type of shaking in an earthquake is not the same as the type needed to cause shaken baby syndrome.
The tsunami in Japan occurred because when the tectonic plates under ground move they cause an earthquake. Sometimes an earthquake can cause a tsunami from shaking underwater.
This is the point on the earth's surface directly above the hypocentre of the earthquake. As such the seismic waves have traveled a minimum distance and so there has been a minimum dissipation of energy. This means they have retained the majority of their energy and so are able to cause the most damage.
It will cause the crust to weaken up. This will cause loss of life and property on it.
