What is seismic shaking-?
"Seismic" refers to an earthquake, so seismic shaking is the shaking motion of the earth (and things on it) caused by an earthquake. There are different waves that emanate from the hypocenter, or point of origin.
What does it mean when your shaking?
There is an earthquake
The amount of shaking produced by an earthquake at a given location is called the?
The amount of shaking produced by an earthquake at a given location is called the intensity. It is measured on the Modified Mercalli Intensity (MMI) scale, which quantifies the level of shaking experienced by people and structures during an earthquake.
Who would feel the ground shaking first in an earthquake?
i depends where the earthquake is.
When an earthquake occurs is shaking greater?
Yes, shaking is a primary characteristic of earthquakes
During an earthquake the most violent shaking occurs at what location?
The most violent shaking during an earthquake typically occurs closest to the earthquake's epicenter, where the seismic waves are strongest. As you move further away from the epicenter, the shaking intensity decreases.
Where does the most violent shaking occur at during an earthquake?
At the epicentre which, is the central point from which it originates.
How do you know when the earthquake starts?
You can feel the ground shaking, objects shaking or rattling, hear a rumbling noise, or see items swaying. These are common signs that an earthquake has started.
What measures the shaking in an earthquake?
The shaking in an earthquake is measured using a seismometer. This device detects and records the vibrations produced by seismic waves during an earthquake. The magnitude of an earthquake is then determined based on the measurements recorded by seismometers.
What is the behavior of an earthquake?
shaking ground and cracking
What is used to record the shaking of a earthquake?
Seismograph.
What are the characteristics of an earthquake?
sudden shaking of the ground
