>>The point within the earth where the fault rupture starts is called the focus or hypocenter. This is the exact location within the earth were seismic waves are generated by sudden release of stored elastic energy. The epicenter is the point on the surface of the earth directly above the focus.
2.RichterScale
>>E.
>>The Richter scale measures the largest wiggle (amplitude) on the recording, but other magnitude scales measure different parts of the earthquake.
3.epicenter
>>A.
>>The epicenter is the point on the earth's surface vertically above the hypocenter (or focus), point in the crust where a seismic rupture begins.
4.seismicwave
>>D.
>>Earthquakes occur when energy stored in elastically strained rocks is suddenly released. This release of energy causes intense ground shaking in the area near the source of the earthquake and sends waves of elastic energy, called seismic waves, throughout the Earth.
5.earthquake
>>B.
>>An earthquake is the result of a sudden release of stored energy in the Earth's crust that creates seismic waves. An earthquake is caused by tectonic plates getting stuck and putting a strain on the ground.
Answers & Comments
Answer:
1. C. = It is where earthquake begins.
2. E. = It is used to determine the magnitude of an earthquake.
3. A. = Surface of the earth directly above the focus of an earthquake.
4. D. = Sudden relase of energy.
5. B. = Shaking of the earth's surface.
