What adjective to describe earthquake?
Destructive, powerful, unpredictable.
What word will describe titanium?
Strong, lightweight, and corrosion-resistant.
What word is used to describe the amount of energy released by an earthquake?
The word used to describe the amount of energy released by an earthquake is "magnitude." This is typically measured using the Richter scale or the moment magnitude scale.
Is there a difference between the hypocenter and the focus of an earthquake?
No. The are both terms which describe the point or region within the earth's lithosphere below the surface where an earthquake begins.
Which earthquake scale would be most appropriate to describe historic earthquakes where seismograph records are not available?
The Mercalli intensity scale would be most appropriate for describing historic earthquakes where seismograph records are not available. This scale categorizes earthquakes based on the observed effects on people, buildings, and the environment rather than on instrumental measurements. It provides a qualitative description of the earthquake's intensity and impact.
How would you describe four pieces of technology that are designed to make buildings earthquake resistant?
The four pieces of technology that are designed to make buildings earthquake resistant are active tendon systems, cross braces, tuned mass dampers, and base insulators. The active tendon system uses computer sensors placed at the bottom of a building to shift the weight of large buildings as ground movement is detected. Cross braces are two diagonal beams that form an X and allow the building to withstand seismic activity. Tuned mass dampers are devices mounted in a building to reduce the amplitude of mechanical vibrations. Base insulators are pads that allow a building to be built away from the ground to give it some movement and sway when earthquakes occur.
Describe the damage an earthquake does?
Earthquakes can cause damage by shaking the ground, leading to buildings collapsing, landslides, and tsunamis in coastal areas. The intensity of the damage depends on factors like the magnitude of the quake, depth of the earthquake, distance from the epicenter, and the quality of buildings and infrastructure in the affected area.
Describe how an earthquake can destroy a country?

How do you describe heat resistant glass for cooking vessels?
You can describe a heat resistant glass for cooking vessels by saying that it does not break under high temperatures. This is because it is made with a chemical element called boron. Pyrex is an example of heat resistant glassware.
