Active Fault Earthquakes Create Seismic Waves also hypocenter 3 Types of Seismic Waves P wave Primary S wave Secondary Surface waves Fastest Slowest Depiction of Seismic Waves Types of Earthquake Waves. The Great California . ShakeOut. . NO. Caused by sudden release of energy. Tectonic earthquakes are focused on a fault. Induced seismicity. Volcanism. The Great California . ShakeOut. . Earthquakes caused by the movement of magma through the earth’s 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.. 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.. The Great California . ShakeOut. . NO. Caused by sudden release of energy. Tectonic earthquakes are focused on a fault. Induced seismicity. Volcanism. The Great California . ShakeOut. . Earthquakes caused by the movement of magma through the earth’s crust. 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.. 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.. These terms must be included in your foldable for home work. Seismology. Deformation. Elastic rebound. Seismic waves. P waves. S waves. What are Earthquakes?. The shaking or trembling caused by the sudden release of energy. 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. .
