What else can I help you with?
What is the shaking of the ground that precedes an earthquake?
Tremors
What event lead to an earthquake?
For a earthquake to happen first the plate from the ground starts to move up and down.
What causes liquefaction?
in the bedrock (soil/ground) with loose sediments.
What magnitude scale measures ground motion?
The Richter Scale is what measures the ground motion from an earthquake.
The place under the ground where the earthquake originates?
That is a fault line.
How many times greater is the maximum ground motion of a magnitude 5 earthquake compared with that of a magnitude 3 earthquake?
The ground motion of a magnitude 5 earthquake is 100 times greater than that of a magnitude 3 earthquake. This is because each whole number increase in magnitude represents an increase in amplitude by a factor of 10.
What the purpose of mine?
The purpose of mining is to find and retrieve useful materials in the ground and bedrock.
What is the name for the area of land where bedrock pushes above the surface of the ground?
An area of land where the bedrock is exposed is referred to by geologists as a bedrock outcrop.
How much greater is a magnitude 7.0 earthquake over a 6.0 earthquake?
The magnitude of an earthquake is measured on a logarithmic scale, so a magnitude 7.0 earthquake is 10 times stronger than a magnitude 6.0 earthquake in terms of the energy released. This means that the amplitude of ground shaking in a magnitude 7.0 earthquake would be significantly greater than in a magnitude 6.0 earthquake.
4 How much would ground motion increase between magnitude 4.5 and 5.5 earthquakes?
Ground motion increases logarithmically with each unit increase in earthquake magnitude. Therefore, the ground motion would be approximately 10 times greater for a magnitude 5.5 earthquake compared to a magnitude 4.5 earthquake.
How many times greater is the maximum ground motion of a magnitude 4 earthquake compared with that of a magnitude 2 earthquake?
The ground motion of a magnitude 4 earthquake is 100 times greater than that of a magnitude 2 earthquake. This is because each whole number increase in magnitude represents a tenfold increase in amplitude and a 32-fold increase in energy release.
What does substrate have to do with earthquake damage?
Substrate is defined as a material that provides the surface on which something is deposited. The degree and amount of earthquake damage is partially dependent upon the substrate of the building. If the structure is not structurally sound and built upon earthquake approved foundations, then damage will be greater.
Who would feel the ground shaking first in an earthquake?
i depends where the earthquake is.
What is the purpose of mine?
The purpose of mining is to find and retrieve useful materials in the ground and bedrock.
What is purpose of mining?
The purpose of mining is to find and retrieve useful materials in the ground and bedrock.
Why does the ground shake in an earthquake?
JAKE
IS earthquake an rock move in soul silver?
no, earthquake is a ground type attack.
