the seismic waves work when the erosion happened in the middle of the ocean and then they burn so they explode!!

Do seismic waves occur at a fault?

no they are fault-block mountains


Why do seismic waves change speed?

"True, the Seismic Waves change speed and direction when they encounter different materials."


What instrument measures tiny movements of markers set up on the opposite sides of a fault?

A geodetic instrument called a creep meter is used to measure tiny movements of markers placed on opposite sides of a fault. These instruments can detect slow and continuous displacements along faults, helping scientists monitor fault activity and potential seismic hazards.


This energy is released by fault movement forms this?

The energy released by fault movement forms seismic waves.


How geologists use seismographic data to make maps of fault?

When seismic waves hit a fault, the waves are reflected off the fault.Seismograph can detect these reflected seismic waves.Geologists then use these data to map the fault's length and depth.


What do earthquakes do?

Seismic waves due to slip across fault planes


Why do seismic waves originate along fault lines?

Seismic waves originate along fault lines because that is an edge of a tectonic plate. Imagine the tectonic plates as pieces of a puzzle. The fault line is the wavy side or edge in the piece and the pieces fit together. Whenever the plates move, they rub against the tectonic plates or puzzle pieces on their sides creating seismic waves.


What is released when rock moves along a fault?

Seismic waves are released when rock moves along a fault. These waves are the ones that cause earthquakes.
