When does an earthquake occur along a fault?
plates of the earth crash into each other along faults causing an earthquake
Is a magnitude 10.5 earthquake possible?
Yes, though it is unlikely to occur with any geologic forces that occur within the Earth. The moment magnitude scale is open-ended, with magnitudes calculated from the amount of energy released by an earthquake. The asteroid impact that wiped out the dinosaurs 65 million years ago is believed to have triggered and earthquake with a magnitude of about 13.0, many times stronger than anything Earth could produce on its own.
Can an earthquake occur in the ocean?
Yes. An earthquake may occur in the ocean.
