Answer:
1.Most tsunamis are caused by earthquakes on converging tectonic plate boundaries.
2.The longer the wave, the greater the volume of water involved
3.When these tectonic plates slip over, under, or past each other at the fault lines where they meet, energy builds up and is released as an earthquake. Undersea earthquakes sometimes cause ocean waves called tsunamis.
4.A tsunami is a series of extremely long waves caused by a large and sudden displacement of the ocean
5.Tsunamis typically consist of multiple waves that rush ashore like a fast-rising tide with powerful currents
6.GROUND SHAKING, a LOUD OCEAN ROAR, or the WATER RECEDING UNUSUALLY FAR exposing the sea floor are all nature's warnings that a tsunami may be coming
7. types of faults: normal, strike-slip, and reverse (or thrust).
8.Usually, it takes an earthquake with a Richter magnitude exceeding 7.5 to produce a destructive tsunami
