The ground turns into quick sand and anthing on top will get submerged.
A seismometer is a device that measures ground motion during earthquakes. It detects and records the intensity and duration of seismic waves, providing valuable data for studying and monitoring seismic events.
A seismometer or seismograph detects the motion of ground waves during an earthquake. These instruments measure the vibrations of the ground caused by seismic waves and help scientists monitor and study earthquakes.
Earthquakes are related to the movement of tectonic plates along faults in the Earth's crust. The sudden release of energy during this movement causes seismic waves that result in the shaking of the ground. Plate boundaries, such as convergent, divergent, and transform boundaries, are common locations for earthquakes to occur.
The science of studying earthquakes is known as seismology. Seismologists study the behavior of seismic waves that travel through the Earth, which helps them understand the causes and effects of earthquakes. They use instruments called seismometers to detect and measure ground motions during earthquakes.
The energy released by earthquakes take the form of seismic waves which travel through the ground. These are detected by a seismograph. Based on the amplitude of the seismic waves measured by the seismograph the earthquakes strength can be calculated (to give a value on the Richter scale). Large earthquakes can cause permanent displacements / deformation at the Earth's surface whereby the change in position of an object can be detected using GPS.

yes earthquakes do
Above ground. If you are below ground then there is something above you and this may collapse on you. The safest place to be during an earthquake is on the ground out in the open where nothing can fall on you. Earthquakes do not kill many people directly, it is falling buildings that do that.
Smells during an earthquakes may be from released gases previously trapped under the ground, gas lines that have cracked, or from the resulting fires.
when earthquakes happen.
Earthquakes do not have a distinct smell. The shaking during an earthquake may create dust or release gases from the ground, but there is no specific scent associated with earthquakes themselves.
The house shakes during earthquakes because the ground beneath it is moving violently due to the release of energy from tectonic plate movements. This movement causes the house to sway and shake, leading to potential damage or collapse.
Seismometers are instruments that measure ground motion during an earthquake. They detect the movement of the ground caused by seismic waves passing through the Earth. The data recorded by seismometers can help scientists analyze and characterize earthquakes.
During earthquakes in an event calledliquefaction. This has been observed several times in Japan where buildings sink into the ground as if they were suddenly standing over water.
yes
Yes, always.
A seismograph is the device that scientists use to measure earthquakes. The goal of a seismograph is to accurately record the motion of the ground during a quake
