Yes and no. Liquifaction usually only happens when land is in a low lying area which is either susceptible to flooding or used to be a swamp etc. This means the water level under the ground is quite near the surface. Therefore in an earthquake the ground shaking - sort of shakes up the water to the surface and it spills out overland. You can do the same thing with a bowl of thick mud. if you bang and shake the bowl the water in the mud will come to the surface - liquifaction. After a while it will sink back into the ground, but the drying out causes land to sink and rise.
What else can I help you with?
Hazards from earthquakes include a process called liquefaction. what happens during liquefaction?
Water-saturated soil and rock become liquid
What are the 6 words that are apart of the water cycle?
Evaporation, Transpiration, Condensation, Precipitation, Rain and Collection.
Evaporation and condensation a part of the?
Evaporation and condensation are part of the water cycle. Evaporation is when water changes from a liquid to a gas, typically due to heat, while condensation is when water vapor changes back into liquid water, often forming clouds or droplets. These processes play a crucial role in redistributing water around the Earth.
What is the process of water moving by precipitation condensation and evaporation?
These are parts of the water cycle on the Earth.
What is the process of the water cycle called?
Another name for the water cycle is the hydrologic cycle.
What is the water cycle part of?
it is apart of science!
How is the ocean apart of the water cycle?
Water is evaporated from oceans. It is returned back to oceans.
Hazards from earthquakes include a process called liquefaction. what happens during liquefaction?
Water-saturated soil and rock become liquid
In areas where unconsolidated sediments are saturated with water earthquakes can turn stable soil into a fluid through a process called .?
liquefaction
Do peaches need heat to grow?
Yes because its all apart of Photosynthesis and the water cycle.
What are the 6 words that are apart of the water cycle?
Evaporation, Transpiration, Condensation, Precipitation, Rain and Collection.
When saturated soil is shaken during an earthquake it may lose its strength this phenomenon is known as?
liquefaction. During liquefaction, the water-saturated soil behaves like a liquid due to increased pore water pressure, resulting in loss of strength and stability. This process can lead to ground failure, settlement, and potential structural damage during an earthquake.
What describe water?
water has small molecules and is apart of the water cycle. Water is found in your pee and blood Carrys oxygen to all of the cells in your body We all need water
Is a tree apart of the water cycle?
Yes, it is because there is a stage where evaporation occurs in plants and the soil, it is called transpiration.
What part of speech is liquefaction?
Liquefaction is a noun.
Evaporation and condensation a part of the?
Evaporation and condensation are part of the water cycle. Evaporation is when water changes from a liquid to a gas, typically due to heat, while condensation is when water vapor changes back into liquid water, often forming clouds or droplets. These processes play a crucial role in redistributing water around the Earth.
The process in which the violent shaking of an earthquake that turns soft soil into liquid mud is what?
The process you are referring to is liquefaction. Liquefaction occurs when water-saturated soil is shaken by an earthquake, causing it to lose strength and behave like a liquid, often resulting in ground failure and structural damage.
