What is the maximum amount of slip on a fault during an earthquake?
what are the maxuim amount of slip on a fault during an earthquake
What is the maximum amount of warning time the village can expect if a tsunami is generated at the subduction zone?
Ocean Village is about 500 miles from a subduction zone which has the potential of producing a tsunami generating earthquake. What is the maximum amount of warning time the village can expect if a tsunami is generated at that subduction zone?
Which region has the greatest amount of earthquake activity?
sss
What does a 1.0 increase on the Richter scale mean?
It means that the maximum amplitude of the seismic waves recorded is 10 times bigger for every 1.0 increase. This is equivalent to a 32 times increase in the amount of energy released by the earthquake.
How much money was lost in the Haiti earthquake?
The predicted amount of money that was lost in the Haiti earthquake was about 200 million.
What is the maximum amount of slip on a fault during an earthquake?
what are the maxuim amount of slip on a fault during an earthquake
Is a hurricane stronger than an earthquake?
In terms of the maximum amount of energy released, an earthquake is stronger.
How much pp does earthquake have?
Earthquake starts with 10pp, and can have a maximum of 16pp (with items that boost PP amount, like PP up and PP Max).
What is the maximum amount of warning time the village can expect if a tsunami is generated at the subduction zone?
Ocean Village is about 500 miles from a subduction zone which has the potential of producing a tsunami generating earthquake. What is the maximum amount of warning time the village can expect if a tsunami is generated at that subduction zone?
The amount of energey released by an earthquake?
That is the magnitude of the earthquake.
Magnitude is an earthquake's what?
The magnitude of an earthquake is caluated to measure the amount of energy released during the earthquake.
What is the amount of energy released by an earthquake called?
This is known as the magnitude of the earthquake.
What is the maximum amount of bank guarantee?
The maximum amount the FDIC insures is $275,000.
How do the data from the movement of seismic waves help determine the earthquake risk for an area?
If an area has a strong amount of seismic waves along, or around, you can predict if an area is active for earthquakes
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.
What is maximum aperture?
Maximum aperture is the maximum amount you can get a hole to open.
What describes the strength of an earthquake?
The amplitude of seismic waves from an earthquake is is measured by a seismometer. From this an estimate can be made of the amount of energy released by an earthquake (this is known as magnitude). The magnitude of an earthquake is controlled by the amount of energy stored within the deformed rocks of the crust. This is in turn a function of the elastic moduli of the crust, the cross sectional area of the fault rupture zone and the amplitude of the displacement on the fault.
