How fast do earthquakes move?

Answer 1

On average, at about the rate that fingernails grow, approximately 3-4 cm per year. This is variable, however, often even across an individual plate, from between 1-2 cm per year for the slowest moving plates to around 10 cm per year for the fastest.

Answer 2

Yes. The plates move at all times, however, various physical forces may interfere with how easily they move (mostly friction) and cause the plates to kind of "jump" as in the case of an earthquake.

Answer 3

Not quite fast, just a few centimeters per year. Its equivalent to the rate of fingernail growth.
well it depends on the plate some move 1 inch a year others 12 inches a year

Answer 4

Approximately 67,000 mph (107,200 km/h)
