What else can I help you with?
What are the vibrations felt before an earthquake called?
They are called aftershocks, or tremors.
Will more shocks be felt after a strong earthquake?
Yes, aftershocks can occur after a strong earthquake. These are smaller tremors that can happen in the days, weeks, or even months following the main earthquake. It is important to be prepared for potential aftershocks and take necessary precautions.
What is the magnitude of the tremors felt in Greensboro NC from the Virginia earthquake?
The magnitude of the Virginia earthquake that was felt in Greensboro, NC was 5.8. This led to light to moderate shaking in Greensboro and other areas in the Southeastern United States.
What do you call the vibration from an earthquake?
Earthquake tremors.
The vibrational tremors sent out from an earthquake?
The vibrational tremors sent out from an earthquake are known as seismic waves. These waves travel through the Earth's crust and are responsible for the shaking felt during an earthquake. There are two main types of seismic waves: primary (P-waves) and secondary (S-waves).
Tremors that occur as an after affect of an earthquake?
Aftershocks
What are the vibrational tremors sent out from the earthquake?
after shock :)
What is the shaking of the ground that precedes an earthquake?
Tremors
Does earthquake terror have a sentence with would of?
No, there is no such thing as "would of" ... the term is would have, as in "I would have felt terror at the earthquake if I'd been there."
How does an ocean earthquake work?
An oceanic earthquake works almost similar to any earthquake on land. In an underwater earthquake, the seafloor moves, causing vibrations in the ground and shockwaves. When near land, these tremors can be felt. Depending on the magnitude and the type of plate boundary (convergent, transform or divergent), it can cause tsunamis.
Can an earthquake happen without anyone knowing?
Yes, all the time. Granted, most of them appear slightly on most seismographs, and are hence "known," but these minor tremors cannot be felt.
Is Dublin on an earthquake plate?
There are occasional very, very small tremors felt in Ireland from minor earthquakes in Britain and under the Irish Sea. There can be years between ones that can be felt. Ireland is not a risk for serious earthquakes though, as it is not at a dangerous position.
