Why is a earthquake called a earthquake?
An earthquake is called so because it describes the shaking of the ground caused by a sudden release of energy in the Earth's crust. The term "earthquake" combines "earth," referring to the ground, and "quake," which means to shake or tremble.
Which type of wave shakes the ground up and down as it moves through the Earth?
Seismic waves called "S waves" shake the ground up and down as they move through the Earth. S waves are a type of shear wave that travels through the Earth's interior and are responsible for the side-to-side or up-and-down motion felt during an earthquake.
What is water that gathers on the ground called?
Water that gathers on the ground is called puddles.
What is soft wet ground called?
Soft wet ground is called "mud."
What is it called when rain that has soaked into the ground called?

What determines where and how much ground shakes?
contributers
What determines where how much the ground shakes.?
contributers
Why is there aftershocks?
because since the earthquake shakes up the ground so much some extra waves come up which are called after shocks
What determines where and how much the ground shakes in an earthquake?
by mercalli scale.

What if your mum so fat when she walks the very ground shakes?
Move Somewhere with Denser Ground
Which surface wave shakes the ground in a rolling elliptical shape?
The surface wave that shakes the ground in a rolling elliptical shape is called the Rayleigh wave. Rayleigh waves travel along the surface of solids and cause both vertical and horizontal ground movement, resulting in a rolling motion that resembles ocean waves. They are typically the most destructive type of seismic wave during an earthquake.
Why does rockslide happen?
well gravity shakes the ground and creates a rockslide
What is the main feature of an earthquake?
the ground shakes and rocks to destroy the world.
How do you figure proportions?
If the ground shakes when they walk, they have a large figure proportion.
