the largest earthquake possibleis the larges earthquake possible
The largest earthquake fault is San Andreas fault.
The largest earthquake recorded by man was the magnitude 9.5 Valdivia earthquake in Chile which occurred on the 22nd of May, 1960.
Not that has ever been recorded by man. The largest recorded earthquake occurred off the west coast of Chile in 1960 and had a magnitude of 9.5. It is thought that the impact that occurred 65.5 million years ago creating the Chixulub crater beneath the Yucatán Peninsula in Mexico (and thought to have contributed to the extinction of the dinosaurs) yielded energy equivalent to an earthquake of magnitude 12.5.
No, the largest recorded earthquake was a 9.5 in Chile on May 22, 1960.
The largest recorded earthquake in the world was a magnitude 9.5 (Mw) in Chile on May 22, 1960.
The largest earthquake fault is San Andreas fault.
Actually, the largest recorded earthquake goes to Chile in 1960 with a 9.5 magnitude earthquake.
The Great Chilean Earthquake
The largest earthquake in the world was the 1960 Voldivic earthquake. It was the most powerful earthquake ever recorded. It rated 9.5 on the magnitude scale. It occurred in the afternoon.
While unlikely it is possible. Consider that in 1811 the New Madrid earthquake abruptly changed the course of one of the largest rivers in the world, the Mississippi.
The largest earthquake recorded in Illinois was a magnitude 5.4 on November 9, 1968.
The largest earthquake recorded by man was the magnitude 9.5 Valdivia earthquake in Chile which occurred on the 22nd of May, 1960.
The largest modern earthquake happened on May 22, 1960 in Valdivia, Chile. it registered a 9.5.
Earthquake
9.5
The largest in recorded history was a 9.5 earthquake in Chile.
I think the largest Earthquake since 1900 was in Chile (may, 1960) and it had a magnitude of 9.5
