Draw several circles from the under ground point called focus.Color it by red and blue alternatively.One is for primary and the next one is for secondary.The gap at focus between primary and secondary should be very close and as the distance goes beyond focus the gap between primary and secondary should be more.This difference represents the speed difference of those two waves.

You can only prepare to cope better with an earthquake should it happen. 1. Buildings are designed so that they flex rather than break when shaken. 2. They keep stocks of temporary shelters such as tents. 3. They keep stocks of bottled water. 4. They acquire vehicles which can cope with disrupted infrastructure. 5. They draw up action plans so everyone knows what they have to do as soon as there is an earthquake.


What do you do to get away from an earthquake?

To get away from an earthquake, the best course of action is to drop to the ground, take cover under a sturdy piece of furniture, and hold on until the shaking stops. If you are outside, move to an open area away from buildings, trees, and utility lines. Stay indoors if you are inside a building, as exiting can lead to injury from falling debris. Always stay informed about earthquake safety protocols in your area.
