What else can I help you with?
Why you have an earthquake?
the tectonic plates are shifting under the earths surface.
How do earthquake activity change the earths surface?
By slowing down the earths rotation but will not make effect to humans .
What the difference between an earthquake's focus and it epicentre?
The focus is the point in the earths crust where the earthquake originates and the epicentre is the point in the earths surface directly above the focus.
What is a crak in the earths crust that can lead to an earthquake called?
A crack in the Earth's crust that can lead to an earthquake is called a fault.
What is the point on the earths surface where an earthquake shaking is the strongest is?
Near plate boundaries.
What is an earthquake that may be far below the earths surface?
it is called the interior
The point on the earths surface closest to the origin of an earthquake is called?
The point on the earth's surface closest to the origin of an earthquake is called the epicenter. This is where the seismic waves generated by the earthquake first reach the surface.
What do we call the point beneath earths surface where the earthquake originates?
The point beneath the earth's surface where an earthquake originates is called the hypocenter.
What is the point on earths surface directly above an earthquake's focus called?
The point on Earth's surface directly above an earthquake's focus is called the epicenter. It is where the seismic waves originating from the earthquake's focus first reach the surface.
What gradually changes earths surface?
an earthquake
How is an earhquake started?
An earthquake is started when two plates (which lie under the Earths surface) rub together this creates movement which then sometimes pulls/pushes at the earths surface and creates giant cracks in the earths surface... and that is how an earthquake is started.
The point on earths surface right above the spot where the first movement of an earthquake occurs is called earthquakes?
Focus
What is the earth point on earths surface directly of the surface of the earthquake?
This is known as the epicentre.
Movement along the earths surface caused by an earthquake?
Collide
What is the point on earths surface where an earthquake energy is received?
epicenter
Why you have an earthquake?
the tectonic plates are shifting under the earths surface.
The point on earths surface where an earthquake starts is called?
Within the Earth, the focal point of the energy released in an earthquake is called the hypocentre or focus. This is where an earthquake actually begins. The place on the Earth's surface directly above this point is known as the epicentre.
