PLEASE HELP BY TUESDAY ILL GIVE BRAINLIEST AWARD AND 60 POINTS. EARTHQUAKE QUESTION.
Earthquakes
1. Read the cards and put them in the right order so that they correctly explain
what causes an earthquake. (you can number the statements).
The tectonic plate suddenly moves
As the surface settles back down there will be smaller
earthquakes known as aftershocks.
Energy is released as 'seismic waves' travel along the surface
away from the epicentre (point on the surface above the focus)
The rock breaks along a weak point (fault line) when the
pressure is released. Where the rock breaks is the 'focus'
Tectonic plates are locked together by friction
This is an earthquake. The Earth's surface shakes, causing 'tremors'
Pressure (strain energy) builds up due to movement in the mantle
the picture is clearer i’ll give brainliest award and the 60 points. i need this by tuesday please. thanks.
