What kind of earthquake is the san Andreas earthquake?
sometimes caues earthquakes in the pacifi coastal piains
What happens after a coastal earthquake?
A landslide is mainly caused
Is an area that has already experienced past earthquakes more or less likely to experienced future earthquake than a area that has never had a earthquake?
yes as they are usually on the edge of tectonic plates which is the reason that the earthquake happened
What is the measurement of how likely an area is to have damaging earthquake called?
an earthquake hazard
Earthquake A has a Richter Magnitude of 7 compared with earthquake B's 6. This indicate that?
Earthquake A, with a Richter Magnitude of 7, releases significantly more energy than Earthquake B, which has a magnitude of 6. Specifically, each whole number increase on the Richter scale represents approximately 31.6 times more energy release; therefore, Earthquake A releases about 31.6 times more energy than Earthquake B. This difference can lead to more severe damage and a greater impact on structures and populations in the affected area.
Which coastal area is mostly to experience a major earthquake?
the west coast of North America
Which coastal area is most likely to experiences a severe earthquake?
west coast of south america
How many people died in the earthquake and tsunami?
It usually depends on the population of people living near the coast since tsunamis occur in near the coastal area. Similarly, it depends on the area the earthquake strikes at.
What is more destructive a big earthquake or many small earthquakes?
It depends on how big the earthquake is. A big earthquake will cause more damage to the area.
Is wetland area more in inland part or coastal part of India?
On coastal areas
What do you call a small earthquake that follows a more powerful earthquake in the same area?
It is called an aftershock.
Which area would likely suffer the most damage from magnitude 6.8 earthquake?
An area with older, unreinforced buildings close to the epicenter of the earthquake would likely suffer the most damage. Additionally, areas with loose, saturated soil such as coastal regions or riverbanks could experience increased liquefaction and ground shaking, leading to more severe impacts.

How can a certain area suffer more damage in earthquake?
A certain area might suffer more damage in earthquakes. It is because that area might be near the epicenter.
How many aftershocks were there for the 2014 Chile earthquake?
The 2014 Chile earthquake, which struck on April 1, had numerous aftershocks, with reports indicating more than 100 significant aftershocks following the main quake. The largest aftershock registered a magnitude of 7.1. Aftershocks are common in seismic zones, and in this case, many of them were felt in the coastal regions of Chile. The earthquake and its aftershocks highlighted the ongoing seismic activity in the area.
