How much did the 1989 earthquake cost?
The 1989 Loma Prieta earthquake in California caused an estimated $6 billion in damages.
How much larger is the wave amplitude of an 8.0 earthquake than a 6.0 earthquake?
The wave amplitude of an 8.0 earthquake is 100 times larger than that of a 6.0 earthquake. This is because earthquake magnitude scales logarithmically, where each whole number increase represents a tenfold increase in amplitude.
How much bigger is a magnitude 9.7 earthquake than a 6.8 earthquake?
A magnitude 9.7 earthquake is significantly larger than a 6.8 earthquake. The difference in magnitude signifies a 10^3.7 times increase in amplitude of seismic waves released, resulting in much greater energy and destructive power.
What is the difference between a 7.0 earthquake than an 5.0 earthquake?
A 7.0 earthquake is much stronger and more destructive than a 5.0 earthquake. The energy released by a 7.0 earthquake is about 1,000 times greater than that of a 5.0 earthquake. This means that a 7.0 earthquake can cause more severe damage to buildings and infrastructure.
What is the difference in strength between a 7.0 magnitude earthquake and a 9.0 magnitude earthquake?
-3.0 magnitude or if you want the ground motion: Each time the magnitude increases by one unit, the measured ground motion becomes 10 times larger. For example, an earthquake with a magnitude of 5.0 on the Richter scale will produce 10 times as much ground motion as an earthquake with a magnitude of 4.0. Furthermore, an earthquake with a magnitude of 6.0 will produce 100 times as much ground motion (10 × 10) as an earthquake with a magnitude of 4.0.
The earthquake is where?
A Earthquake is located where the two plates (a plate boundary) meet and there is to much pressure building up and that is how and where a earthquake is and how it happens.
How can erupt the volcano?
Volcanoes erupt when there is an earthquake or when there is too much pressure inside it.
Where is a good place to build a house so it won't collapse in an earthquake?
Actually it is not so much where, but HOW you build that house. NO PLACE ON THE PLANET is immune from earthquakes.
Why do geologists collect data on friction along the sides of faults?
Geologists collect data on friction along the side of faults so that they can predict how much pressure is applied on the faults so they can predict how strong the earthquake is.
How does pressure help build earthquakes?
To get the Earth to move (quake), much force is needed. Pressure is force per unit area.
Why does your nose bleed when you laugh?
Most likely dry air. Or a build up of too much pressure.
Why could steamboat travel be dangerous?
The engines could build up too much pressure and explode!
What is the inner core is under so much pressure it does not move like a liquid it?
the pressure is making it behave in a solid form
How is 1.9 earthquake different from a 8.5 earthquake?
An 8.5 Earthquake is MUCH larger and does more damage.
What is one cultural fact in Chile or about Chile?
The tsunami that happen in Japan all the wind and water went to Chile causing and Earthquake from so much pressure.
Why geologists collect data on friction along the sides of faults?
So that geologist can predict how much force of pressure applied on the faults to predict how strong the earthquake.
What happens when an engine has too much oil?
It can build up too much pressure and blow seals, it will smoke, not a good idea to overfill your oil.
