The Question: How is energy from earthquakes spread? What’s First? The Question: How is energy from earthquakes spread? Hyperlink map to video Research: Map of Virginia

Can animals predict earthquakes? Hyperlink text box to video of animals at zoo Can animals predict earthquakes?

Earthquakes: sudden release of energy from the Earth causing shaking Stress on rock becomes stronger than the rock’s strength Rock break and releases energy Energy travels in waves

Largest movement of earthquake felt here: Epicenter: Point on surface directly above focus Focus: The point in the lithosphere where the rock breaks

Where do epicenters occur? Fracture  Fault Rock is weaker than pressure and stress upon it.

Hypothesis: Procedure: Time movement of springs

Data: WAVE TYPE: TRIAL # TIME OBSERVATION (SKETCH AND DESCRIPTION) 1 2 3 AVERAGE WAVE TYPE

P – Waves: Push and Pull Primary Waves Practice pushing and pulling the slinky toward you a bit and then pushing it away. Complete observation in data chart. 3 trials timing the wave as it does one complete trip back and forth. Find the average of your data.

S – Waves: Side to Side Secondary Waves Flat on table S – Waves: Side to Side Secondary Waves Practice moving the slinky side to side parallel to the table. Complete observation in data chart. 3 trials timing the wave as it does one complete trip back and forth. Find the average of your data.

L – Waves: Up and Dow Love Waves Practice moving the slinky up and down perpendicular to the table. Complete observation in data chart. 3 trials timing the wave as it does one complete trip back and forth. Find the average of your data.

ANALYIZE THE DATA: DESCRIBE WHAT YOU NOTICE ABOUT THE 3 TYPES OF WAVES. ARE THERE ANY PATTERNS IN YOUR DATA?

Conclusion: How are the types of waves alike? How are the types of waves different? What difference do you predict this makes on studying earthquakes?

Waves caused by movement inside the Earth Seismic Waves Waves caused by movement inside the Earth Original Force: Where rocks broke Energy being transferred down the line

Measures seismic waves Seismograph: Measures seismic waves

Measures earthquakes by graphing the waves of energy SEISMOGRAPH Measures earthquakes by graphing the waves of energy

P-Waves (Primary) Push and pull underground rocks Causes structures on the surface to move back and forth Least powerful Fast

S-Waves (Secondary) Horizontal: Rocks move from side to side Damaging effects Slower Only through rock

L-Waves (Love) Vertical and sideways: Rocks move up and down Occurs on surface Fastest of all Most destructive
