Tsunami
It is a tsunami.
Large waves produced by earthquakes are known as tsunamis.Define: Tsunami - A very large and destructive wave, generally caused by a tremendous disturbance in the ocean, such as an undersea earthquake or volcanic eruption.
Movement in the earth's crust, as in earthquakes.
things that can cause seismic waves are earthquackes
earthquakes can shift things around, like landforms, and mess around with the climate. they are very hazardous. landforms: trees around, can get on telephone poles- fire flooding: climate and levee breaks, or such- The first wave of an earthquake is a strong up ward moving wave known as the primary wave, or Transverse wave. This first wave causes little destruction but can be the most forceful The second, longer wave has a side to side movement, this wave is known as a Longitudinal wave. This wave causes most of the destruction The first wave basically really mucks up the ground, it causes stress fractures in the crust of our earth. The second wave then sakes the already craked ground until land slides, trees or buildings fall over. When certain things under a house suddenly get ripped up, things start to cetch on fire. Floods happen because the levies and dikes brake during the second wave.
A tsunami is an ocean wave caused by an earthquake.It is not a tidal wave.
It is a tsunami.
Earthquakes in Japan are caused by the movement of tectonic plates. A tsunami is a large ocean wave that is caused by sudden motion on the ocean floor which can be triggered by earthquakes.

The height of the wave in the earthquakes depends with the earthquake in question.
It is possible to have a seismic wave without having an earthquake. Any wave moving through the ground is a seismic wave, and all earthquakes are seismic waves. But seismic waves can be created by volcanic action, landslides, meteor strikes or the like. Though all earthquakes are seismic waves, not all seismic waves are earthquakes.
A wave that is connected with earthquakes, like S waves
In some instances and undersea earthquake can trigger a tsunami, a kind of massive wave.
Yes
A Tsunami is caused by an Earthquake. The ground or area of land shakes which causes a small to large wave in a body of water, which is a Tsunami. An aftershock tends to be a couple of smaller earthquakes, after a large earthquake that you are able to feel. Tons of earthquakes can occur throughout the day, but they have a big enough decimal to actually be able to feel them.
The difference is that they all have different movements, some have wave motion and the others shaking
