What is An earthquake that results from Sudden movements of rock below the Earth's surface?
An earthquake is a sudden release of energy in the Earth's crust that creates seismic waves, resulting from the abrupt movement of rocks along faults or fractures. This movement can occur due to tectonic forces, volcanic activity, or human activities. The energy released during an earthquake can cause significant ground shaking, leading to potential damage to structures and landscapes.
What else can I help you with?
What is the point on earths surface where the seismic activity is strongest in an earthquake?
The vibrations of a earthquake are strongest where the falt line is.
What do you call the point of the earths surface directly above where an earthquake originates?
The epicenter
What is the point on earths surface directly over the earthquake?
The term describing this point is "epicentre"
How does earths surface and the structures on the surface change as a result of an earthquake?
The surface of the Earth can be changed by resulting from outer space, like from a meteor strike.
What occurs when the plates of rock that form Earths surface slide back and forth?
An EarthQuake Accurs
What results from a shifting of the Earths crust?
earthquake
What is the shaking that results from the movement of rock beneath Earths surface?
The shaking that results from the movement of rock beneath Earth's surface is called an earthquake. This shaking is caused by the release of energy stored in the Earth's crust due to movements along faults. Earthquakes can vary in intensity and can cause significant damage to buildings and infrastructure.
What gradually changes earths surface?
an earthquake
What is the term for smaller movements of the earths crust that follow an earthquake?
Aftershocks.
How is an earhquake started?
An earthquake is started when two plates (which lie under the Earths surface) rub together this creates movement which then sometimes pulls/pushes at the earths surface and creates giant cracks in the earths surface... and that is how an earthquake is started.
What is the earth point on earths surface directly of the surface of the earthquake?
This is known as the epicentre.
Movement along the earths surface caused by an earthquake?
Collide
What is the point on earths surface where an earthquake energy is received?
epicenter
Why you have an earthquake?
the tectonic plates are shifting under the earths surface.
What do we call the point beneath earths surface where the earthquake originates?
The point beneath the earth's surface where an earthquake originates is called the hypocenter.
I want an information on earthquakes?
earthquakes are movements on the earths surface
How do earthquake activity change the earths surface?
By slowing down the earths rotation but will not make effect to humans .
