Faults, Earthquakes and Uplift: Transcript


Move it move it What are they Fault a break or fracture in the crust of Earth Earthquakes shaking or trembling of the earth caused by movement along a fault Uplift upward movement of Earths crust. Move it, move it !!. What are they?. Fault: a break or fracture in the crust of Earth.. Earthquakes: shaking or trembling of the earth caused by movement along a fault.. Uplift: upward movement of Earth’s crust.. Deformation. Whether a material bends or breaks depends on . h. ow much stress is applied to the material.. Deformation. Process by which the shape of a rock changes because of stress.. Objectives:. Describe. By. VAMSI. &. VINAY. . (pages 178–183). The Seismograph (page 179). Key Concept: Seismic waves cause the seismograph’s drum to vibrate. But the suspended weight with the pen attached moves very little. Therefore, the pen stays in place and records the drum’s vibrations.. Chapter 2 Section 3. Objectives. F.2.3.1. Explain how a seismograph works.. F.2.3.2. Describe how Geologists monitor faults.. F.2.3.3. . Explain how . seismograph data is used.. The Seismograph. Seismic waves cause the seismographs drum to vibrate but the suspended weight with the pen attached moves very little. Therefore the pen remains still and records the vibrations on the drum.. EARTHQUAKES AND FAULTS. Why do earthquakes occur? . What is the relationship between earthquakes and faults? . A shallow MAGNITUDE 7.2 earthquake struck Central . Visayas. Tuesday, October 15. The quake struck at 8:12 am, with EPICENTER 2 kilometers southeast of Carmen, Bohol. The quake's depth of FOCUS was 33 kilometers. According to scientists, the earthquake was caused by movement along the North Bohol Fault. . ITET G. . MAGGIOLINI . & . “The green . school. network. ” . present. . What. . is. an . earthquake. ?. An earthquake (also known as a quake, . tremor) . is the . shaking of the surface. of the Earth, resulting from the sudden release of energy in the Earth's lithosphere that creates seismic waves. . An . earthquake. is a shaking of the ground caused by the sudden movement of large blocks of rock along a fault. Earthquakes occur along faults.. A . fault. is a fracture, or break, in Earth’s lithosphere, along which blocks of rock move past each other.. Move it, move it !!. What are they?. Fault: a break or fracture in the crust of Earth.. Earthquakes: shaking or trembling of the earth caused by movement along a fault.. Uplift: upward movement of Earth’s crust.. . What Is an Earthquake?. An . earthquake. is the vibration of Earth produced by the rapid release of energy. Energy released radiates in all directions from its source, the . focus. . Energy is in the form of waves. This topic will shake you up. Stress. Stress-. a force (energy) that acts on rock to change its shape or volume. Types of Stress. Tension-. pulls or stretches rock so that it becomes thinner in the middle. This happens at divergent plate boundaries.. Content Purpose:. Explore the scientific theory of plate tectonics by describing how the movement of Earth's crustal plates causes both slow and rapid changes in Earth's surface, including volcanic eruptions, earthquakes, and mountain building. . Measures time since mineral grains were buried (last exposed to sunlight).. Trace amount of radioactive isotopes (K, U, Th, . Rb. ) slowly decay over time. Produced ionizing radiation absorbed by mineral grains (usually quartz) as charge called ‘electron trap’.. During: Fault notes. After: Exit slip 4 questions. Day 1: Faults. Fault-. a breaks . in the earth’s surface along which rocks can . move.. Three . kinds of faults – determined by how the rocks move against each .
