The surface of the earth moves violently in an what?
The surface of the earth moves violently in an earthquake. This occurs when there is a sudden release of energy in the earths crust. Anything from a volcano to a tectonic plate shift can cause an earthquake.
The point on earths surface where an earthquake starts is called?
Within the Earth, the focal point of the energy released in an earthquake is called the hypocentre or focus. This is where an earthquake actually begins. The place on the Earth's surface directly above this point is known as the epicentre.
Is the shifting of earths crust with the release of energy is a p wave?
no it's an earthquake.
Is the shifting of the earths crust with the release of energy a p wave?
no it's an earthquake.
What is the point in earths interior where the energy release of an earthquake occurs?
The point within Earth's interior where the energy release of an earthquake occurs is known as the focus or hypocenter. This is the location where the seismic waves originate and spread outwards, causing the shaking and damage on the Earth's surface. The epicenter, on the other hand, is the point directly above the focus on the Earth's surface.
What absorbed the most energy that is radiated from earths surface?
the greenhouse
What absorbs energy that is radiation from earths surface?
the greenhouse effect!
Why are carbon dioxide water vapor and other greenhouse gases important to life on Earths surface?
They absorb radiant energy emitted by Earths surface
How does energy from earthquake reach earth surface?
energy reachs earth surface through seismic waves: P waves S waves and Surface waves
What is the transfer of energy from the sun to earths surface?
Because of the heat and light
