tectonic plates- move in 3 ways
1. collide w/ eachother
2.seperate from eachother
3. slide against eachother
when plates are moved to the breaking point it causes an eartquake
an earthquake is a seismic wave
Florida is the only US state that has never had an earthquake. Its geological composition is not conducive to seismic activity.
The San Andreas Fault is one of the most famous and significant earthquake fault lines in California. It runs approximately 800 miles through the state and is capable of producing powerful earthquakes.
The amount of energy released by an earthquake is measured on the moment magnitude scale, often referred to as just magnitude. This scale takes into account the seismic moment, which is a measure of the total energy released during an earthquake. The magnitude is expressed in whole numbers and decimal fractions.
Seismographs are used to detect and monitor earthquakes, providing critical data for understanding earthquake activity and helping with early warning systems. This information can help mitigate damage and save lives by allowing people to prepare for and respond to earthquake events. Additionally, seismographs help scientists study the Earth's interior structure and dynamics.
"Important" or significant earthquakes can be measured in most damage, most fatalities, or largest magnitude. In the 20th century the earthquake with the most fatalities was in Iran on June 1990 with 50,000 fatalities. The largest earthquake was magnitude 8.3 in the Kuril Islands on 4-Oct-1994. The 21st century surpasses the 20th century with earthquakes of a higher magnitude (9.0) and higher fatality count (over 200K deaths in Sumatra).
to many to count
yes

How do you think? the Eartquake shakes the ground and foundations break you noob of common sense How do you think? the Eartquake shakes the ground and foundations break you noob of common sense

san jose had a eartquake
it was 45 (forty five) days
i dont know ask your teacher
A eartquake is made when 2 plates hit each other
the pacific plate and the indo- austrailian plate
havve the Pokemon to hold it then go to battle tower and dupliate
