Violent shaking from an earthquake can cause soil and rock on slopes to fail and cause a landslide

The amount of shaking produced by an earthquake at a given location is called the intensity.

An earthquake's magnitude is a measure of how strong it is

magnitude of past earthquakes in the area

P waves, also called primary waves, are the first waves to be registered on a seismograph. The S waves, or secondary waves, are the second and slower wave to register on the seismograph. When locating an earthquakes epicenter seismologists take the first reading of the P wave, and then take the reading from the S wave. At the station of where the earthquake was recorded, seismologists draw a large circle from where the earthquakes epicenter could be. TO exactly located the earthquakes epicenter there needs to be at least 3 dfferent staions where the earthquake hit to determine its epicenter using the S and P time interval.

It would stop earth's rotation.
