What happens to the energy that is released during an earthquake?
It is dissipated in making physical changes to the rock layers, and to the ground surface, objects, and buildings. Some is released as thermal energy.
Give one fact about earthquakes start with a?
A seiche, is what happens in the swimming pools of Californians during and after an earthquake.
What happens to the Earth's crust during an earthquake?
it erodes but i cant erode cauz erode means to eat through so it shifts
What are known as s waves?
S waves, or Secondary waves, are earthquake waves during an earthquake. They crash after P waves ( Primary waves) and are less stronger than surface waves
5 What happens to soil during and after an earthquake?
The soil becomes a liquid or a solid depending on the magnitude of the earthquake. Also the soil becomes decomposed by octopus because octopus eat chicken.
What is measured by Richter scale?
A Richter scale measures the movement of the earths surface which happens during an earthquake.
What happens on land during an earthquake?
During an earthquake, the ground shakes due to the movement of tectonic plates beneath the Earth's surface. This shaking can cause buildings, roads, and other structures to be damaged or collapse. Landslides and ground fissures can also occur, increasing the risk of property damage and injury.
What is the area beneath earhs surface where rock that is under stress breaks triggering an earthquake?
The area beneath the Earth's surface where rock under stress breaks and triggers an earthquake is known as the focus or hypocenter. This point is typically located along a fault line, where tectonic plates interact. The seismic waves generated by the sudden release of energy at the focus propagate outward, causing the shaking felt during an earthquake. The point directly above the focus on the Earth's surface is called the epicenter.
Does a rock moving during an earthquake show biotic resources interacting with abiotic resources?
No, a rock moving during an earthquake is a result of tectonic plate movement beneath the Earth's surface, which is a purely physical process involving abiotic resources (rocks and land). Biotic resources, which are living organisms or their products, are not directly involved in the movement of rocks during an earthquake.
How many degrees was the Earth's Axis tilted during the Haiti Earthquake?
The Earth's axis was not tilted during the Haiti Earthquake. The earthquake occurred due to the movement of tectonic plates along a fault line beneath the Earth's surface, causing the ground to shake. This movement did not affect the tilt of the Earth's axis.
How does a landslide or rockslide happen?
It usually happens after or during an earthquake.
What happens to the energy that is released during an earthquake?
It is dissipated in making physical changes to the rock layers, and to the ground surface, objects, and buildings. Some is released as thermal energy.
What happens scientifically during an earthquake?
There is a sudden movement in the earths crust in an earthquake. However, lava does not appear
During an earthquake Earth's surface shakes hardest at the?
During an earthquake, the Earth's surface shakes hardest at the epicenter, which is the point on the surface directly above where the earthquake originated. The seismic waves radiate outwards from this point, causing the most intense shaking near the epicenter.
Which seismic wave cause most of the damage during an earthquake?
The L- Wave or the Love and Rayleigh waves (collectively known as surface waves) cause most of the damage during an earthquake.
What is the location on the surface directly above the earthquake fous?
The location on the Earth's surface directly above the earthquake focus is referred to as the epicenter. This is the point where seismic waves originating from the earthquake focus first reach the surface. It is usually where the strongest shaking is felt during an earthquake.
What is the name given to the place beneath the ground where an earthquake starts?
The place beneath the ground where an earthquake starts is called the "hypocenter" or "focus." This is the point within the Earth where the seismic energy is released, generating seismic waves that cause the ground shaking experienced during an earthquake.
