What is the most common scale geologist use
100
when it shaking and the soft soil become loose and cause mud and the building or house pull apart or sink
What is liquefaction
100
it pull the rock apart the the middle look like it squeezed
What does the tension stress do
200
Secondary wave
What does a S wave
200
draw three circle from 3 station each circle is around each station and where connect is the location
What do they do to locate the epicenter
200
a shock where it can even come in a hour, day or even a month later
What is An aftershock of an earthquake
200
it expand the rocks by pushing into each other
What does compression do
300
When the hanging wall on the top and the foot wall on the bottom
What is a Reverse fault
300
The wave that come after the S wave in a wave like motion
What is a surface wave
300
a machine that measure every single movement of the earth
What is a seismograph
300
when a earthquake hit the water and it cause a giant wave that can wipe out a city
What is a tsunami
300
shearing cause a huge rock to slip
What does shearing do
400
when the footwall on top and hanging wall on the bottom
What is a normal fault
400
P wave then S wave then surface wave
Which order do the waves come in
400
Every number it go up it times 10 for example like 1 is 1000 and 2 is 10 time the amount
How does a Richter scale work
400
cause by seismic wave that can cause land slides and avalanches and it does a lot of damage
What cause the shaking and is there a lot of damage
400
it will bend, fold or break
What will the stress of the rock do when it hit it limit
500
a fault that is on top of the rock that slip(aerial)

500
surface wave
Which Wave roll like a ocean wave
500
it tell the magnitude by using roman numerals from 1-12
What does a mercalli scale
500
after the earthquake it start out as a little wave but as it go to shore it grow as tall as a mountain
