Earthquakes are like a rubber band. They both have limits. If you strech a rubber band the farthest it can, it will eventually meet it's elastic limit or the point where it can strech its farthest. If you go any farther than its elastic limit the rubber band will break. This is an example of how earthquakes are formed.I'm not sure if a volcano can cause earthquake or an earthquake can cause an volcanic eruption or both. But earthquakes can cause volcanoes to erupt. There are many kinds of earthquakes some are big and destructive but most of them are small that we can't even feel. Small earthquakes are important now and then because if they don't happen often the stress and force build up and create a big earthquake. One cause of earthquake causes in volcanic regions can probably be the shaking of an earthquake can cause an eruption. Or the shaking ofa volcano can cause an earthquake.
Earth quakes can destroy areas and cities when the occur. especially places with big buildings and a lot of residents. they can tear apart forests. but earthquakes happening is part of nature. (when a techtonic plate moves)*example- san adreas fault*
Tsunamis do not have epicentres. Earthquakes do. Sometimes, as in the case of Japan, earthquakes cause tsunamis.
Because of the big grinding of the conservative plate margin cause the land to go back and forth
No, stress in this context refers to the accumulation of pressure in the Earth's crust, and it is a key factor in causing earthquakes. Geological processes like tectonic plate movements and interactions create stress that can lead to seismic activity. Emotional stress experienced by humans does not directly contribute to earthquakes.
It depends on how big the earthquake is. A big earthquake will cause more damage to the area.
The biggest earthquakes do not always cause the most damage if they strike unpopulated areas, or areas where the local infrastructure was built to withstand severe earthquakes. Also some big earthquakes may be high in intensity, but very short in duration, causing less damage.
Earthquakes.
No, Emily does not cause earthquakes. Earthquakes are natural phenomena caused by the movement of tectonic plates beneath the Earth's surface. Emily, as an individual, does not have the ability to cause earthquakes.
It all depends on how big the fault is, bigger ones will cause bigger earthquakes, while smaller, or small ones may cause no earthquake at all.
They can cause earthquakes or plate movements, depends how big it was. -bkinishi@yahoo.com
Both are considered bad. Volcanoes, if the eruption is big enough, can damage a lot of land. However, earthquakes are more frequent and they can be very destructive.
As big as regular earthquakes.
Japan has a lot of earthquakes during the year. Most are small enough they can pretty much be ignored, but some are big enough to be felt, and rarely the are big enough to cause some damage. Earthquakes themselves in Japan do not cause much damage. Buildings are built to withstand even the strongest earthquakes. Direct damages to buildings could be cracks in walls ceilings and floors, and sometimes destruction of the house if the house is too old, or not built to withstand strong earthquakes. Indirect damages are the worst following an earthquake. They will include tsunami, landslides, fires. Power outages may follow. In public transportation systems such as train, earthquakes are usually detected before they arrive, so the operator has enough time to stop or slow the train down to prevent large accidents. This delays trains and screws schedules off, but they will not be in any serious physical damage, but if they are, they are usually derailments. Power outages will stop the whole train system until power is back.
Big earthquakes occur when tectonic plates, which make up the Earth's crust, suddenly release built-up stress through movement along faults. This sudden release of energy creates seismic waves that shake the ground violently, causing significant damage and potentially resulting in large earthquakes.
An asteroid needs to be at least 25 meters in diameter to cause significant damage upon impacting Earth.
it was kinda big
