How did the tsunami in japan happen in the first place?

Most likely an earthquake out at sea. The force from the quake creates giant waves (tsunami) which can be up to 60 feet high! The reason an earthquake is suspected is because the land had a quake, so one most happened along a nearby fault line in the sea too.


Did the earth axis move during the Japan earthquake?

There are some reports that the displacement of land masses in Japan may have caused a shift in the axis of the Earth - by about 6.5 inches. That's because of the shift in Earth's mass caused by the 9.0-magnitude earthquake. It may have also shortened the length of Earth's days by about 1.26 microseconds. A microsecond is one-millionth of a second. ~ Look to the related link below .

How much did the earth move on its axis from the japan earthquake?

The 2011 Japan earthquake caused the Earth to shift on its axis by about 17 centimeters (6.5 inches). This shift resulted in a slight increase in the Earth's rotation speed, shortening the length of a day by a few microseconds.


How far did Japan move in the 2011 earthquake?

Parts of Japan near the epicenter moved over 4 meters, both vertically and laterally, as a result of the 9.0 magnitude earthquake. Areas further away in Japan also moved, but not as significantly. You can view a map of the displacement with a short description at the related link.


Did the earth move after the Japan earthquake 2011?

Yes, the massive magnitude 9.0 earthquake that struck Japan in 2011 caused the Earth to move (shift on its axis) by about 17 centimeters. This movement slightly altered the distribution of Earth's mass, which affected its rotation speed and caused changes in the length of a day by a few microseconds.
