What else can I help you with?
Why are there fewer magnitude 2 and 3 earthquakes instead of magnitude 4 earthquakes?
There are far more magnitude 2 or 3 earthquakes than magnitude 4 earthquakes. The small quakes just don't get noticed as much because they typically do little or no serious damage.
What is the kind of movement produced by earthquakes and volcanic eruptions?
Earthquakes are the result of a sudden release of energy in the crust of the Earth that creates seismic waves. This seismicy factor in an area refers to the frequency, type and size of earthquakes experienced over a period of time.
What type of earthquakes happen each day?
Magnitude 2 and smaller earthquakes occur several hundred times a day world wide.
How many earthquakes are in the world?
3 million ayear
How many earthquakes occur in Chile a year?
3
What type of boundary is responsible for earthquakes?
Divergent, transform, and convergent all have earthquakes
Which type of margin causes earthquakes?
Bercel
What type of plate causes earthquakes?
Convergent Boundaries
What type of countries has earthquakes?
Everywhere on the planet suffers from earthquakes at some time. However there ares some places where earthquakes, particularly bad earthquakes, are more frequent. These places are located at continental margins.
In which type of location is earthquakes risk the greatest?
at plate boundaries

What type of earthquakes occur farther inland than other earthquakes?
Intraplate earthquakes occur farther inland than other earthquakes. These earthquakes occur within a tectonic plate, away from plate boundaries where most earthquakes typically occur. Intraplate earthquakes can be caused by ancient faults or stress within the plate itself.
What type of earthquakes cause widespread damage and loss of lives?
Strong ones at or above 6 on the earthquake scale. Earthquakes centered close to human connerbations. Earthquakes that cause Tsunamis.
What type of material can earthquakes travel through?
EVERYTHING! Der der der! Except nothing. Earthquakes cannot travel through space..
What type of earthquakes happen each day?
Magnitude 2 and smaller earthquakes occur several hundred times a day world wide.
What type of disaster might affect a house built on a cliff?
Earthquakes
