its just earthquake
energy from plate techtonic
because techtonic plates moved
Because of faults in the Earth's techtonic plates
when the techtonic plates move, they can make an earthquake, that then may trigger techtonic plates to move and begin waves that become a tsunami
When the earth's techtonic plates come together at just the right angle and one goes slightly up it creates an earthquake
The movement of techtonic plates under the earth's crust
The techtonic plates are shifting. One plate is being overlaped by the other.
Like a polyghraph squiggles show the techtonic plates moving.
because it has techtonic plates and the plates started to move but they rubbed against each other and caused the land to move as well and the earthquake was so powerful that it caused an underwater earthquake called a tsunami.
There are normally more earthquakes in coastal areas because they are on the fault lines between the different techtonic plates.
The epicenr can be found by location the sound in the waves carried.
Seismic waves are the waves that rapidly move through the earth's crust causing a shift in techtonic plates. These waves tell us how strong an earthquake was.
