the second an Earthquake hits you should run as fast as you can to a doorway (for example the Kitchen, Living room or a Bedroom and wait there until the Earthquake passes so that nothing heavy falls on you if a big Earthquake... that's what I did when we had an Earthquake in 2000, again in 2008 I think and again in 2010 and as far as the Earthquake in 2000 that we had goes I was sleeping that morning on January 1st 2000 when I heard a noise from very far so I rushed out of bed and somehow knew an Earthquake was coming and as soon as I rushed in my Bedroom doorway the whole house started shaking like crazy lol!!!.
What else can I help you with?
What is the point inside earth where movement from inside an earthquake first occurs?
The point inside Earth where movement from inside an earthquake first occurs is called the focus or hypocenter. This is the location where the seismic energy is released, generating seismic waves that travel to the surface and cause shaking.
What is the point inside the earth where the first movement of an earthquake occurs and energy is released?
The point inside the Earth where the first movement of an earthquake occurs and energy is released is known as the focus or hypocenter. This is the location where the seismic waves originate and spread outwards, causing the shaking and vibrations associated with an earthquake.
What is the foreshock of an earthquake?
NOUN:: A minor tremor of the earth that precedes a larger earthquake originating at approximately the same location. NOUN:: A minor tremor of the earth that precedes a larger earthquake originating at approximately the same location.
When an earthquake occurs seismic waves travel outward from the?
When an earthquake occurs, seismic waves travel outward from the focus (the point where the earthquake originates) through the Earth's crust and mantle. These waves can be detected by seismometers and help scientists study the characteristics of the earthquake and the structure of the Earth's interior.
What part of the world does earthquake mainly occurs?
New Zealand
What is the point inside earth where movement from inside an earthquake first occurs?

The is the point inside Earth where the first movement of an earthquake occurs and energy is released.?
the point inside the earth where the first movement of an earthquake occurs and energy is released is called the epicenter.
You are safest inside a building when an earthquake occurs true or false?
True. During an earthquake, being inside a well-constructed building can offer better protection from falling debris and ground shaking compared to being outside, where you're more exposed to hazards. However, it's important to follow safety protocols, such as taking cover under sturdy furniture and staying away from windows. Buildings designed to withstand earthquakes provide greater safety than those that are not engineered for seismic activity.

What can be done before an earthquake happens?
Stay a good distance away from the ocean. Earthquakes often trigger tsunamis. Keep a falcrom handy. If someone is trapped beneath a building, you could free them. When the earthquake occurs, don't go outside/inside, just in case no-one else has a falcrom...
What are somethings you can do to prepare for an earthquake before one occurs?
you can look in websites to see if one will occur and make a earthquake bag to put all your safety stuff inside
What is an earthquake that occurs in the ocean?
A seaquake is a type of earthquake that occurs under the seafloor.
What is it called where an earthquake first occurs?
The earthquake's hypocenter, is where the crust's rupture begins.*The epicenter of a quake is the point, on Earth's surface, associated with this hypocenter, which can be many kilometers inside the crust.
What is a fracture in rocks where movement occurs?
Energy building up inside the fracture to split the rock open.
What precautions are to be taken if an earthquake occurs?
If you are inside during an earthquake, you should take cover under something sturdy to protect yourself from falling objects. After it is over, check for broken gas or electric lines.
What do you call an earthquake that occurs after a larger earthquake in the same area?
This is known as an aftershock.
What is the term what do you call an earthquake that occurs after a larger earthquake in the same area?
after shock
