Is it true that an earthquake is any seismic vibration of earth caused by the slow release of energy?
no, its a fast release
What is a movement in the ground caused by a sudden release of energy under the Earth's crust?
A shift in the earth's crust to relieve pressure, and therefore release energy, is an earthquake.
How does a seismic wave relate to an earthquake?
Seismic waves are the waves of energy caused by the sudden breaking of rock within the earth or an explotion.
What describes the relationship between earthquakes and volcanoes?
earthquakes and volcanoes are caused by the shaking of the earth. Both can cause damage.
What is an earthquake and situations that earthquakes occur?
An earthquake is a sudden and violent shaking of the ground, it is caused by movements within the earth's crust or volcanic action.
A shaking of the ground caused by the sudden release of energy in Earth's crust?
It is an earthquake
What is the shaking of the earth caused by the release of energy as rock suddenly breaks or shifts under stress?
earthquake
Is an earthquake any seismic vibration of earth caused by the slow release of energy?
False. An earthquake is a seismic wave caused by a sudden release of energy.
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.

How are earthqakes are caused?
An earthquake is the result of a sudden release of energy in the Earth's crust that creates seismic waves.
What is the sudden shaking of the earth that often causes a lot of damage?
An earthquake is a shaking of the ground caused by shifts in the tectonic plates as they move against each other.
Why is the moon shaking in the sky?
It isn't it is an optical effect caused by viewing the moon through the Earth's atmosphere.
How does a seismic wave relate to an earthquake?
Seismic waves are the waves of energy caused by the sudden breaking of rock within the earth or an explotion.
What caused the ground to shake so strongly in the christchurch earthquake?
seismic waves Seismic waves are energy that travel through the earth's layers, and are caused by the release of energy from the earthquake. This release of energy causes the crust to move, rip, and tear causing a lot of damage if close to the surface.
