Move it, move it !!

 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.

■ Faults are blocks of the earth’s crust that meet together. Scientists identify four types of faults, characterized by the position of the fault plane, the break in the rock and the movement of the two rock blocks. ■ Faults lines are under enormous pressure from the two pieces of the earth’s crust pushing together. ■ The faults will eventually give way to the pressure causin g earthquakes and creating mountain ranges.

A fault is very important to the cave. Through the fault line the water can flow through the crack and form beautiful cave formations

 ■Earthquakes occur when rock shifts or slips along fault lines.  ■Earthquakes generate waves that travel through the earths surface.  ■These waves are what is felt and cause damage around the epicenter of the earthquake.  ■Earthquakes occur when rock shifts or slips along fault lines.  ■Earthquakes generate waves that travel through the earths surface.  ■These waves are what is felt and cause damage around the epicenter of the earthquake.

 Measuring earthquakes is a vital part to letting us know how big the earthquake was and what activity might be going on in the earth’s surface.  Earthquakes are measured by seismographs. A seismograph is an instrument that measures the size and strength of the seismic waves that are released during an earthquake.

■ Uplift often occurs throughout mountain regions as the crust of the earth thrusts upward. ■Uplift typically occurs as a result of earthquakes and mountain building. ■ Many different examples of uplift can be seen in Timpanogos National Monument and throughout Utah.

1. Wash your hands! 2. Open your Snickers bar and use your fingernail to make a few breaks in the “crust” 3. Pull the candy bar carefully apart. As the “plates” move apart, you can see the caramel underneath and will be able to see an example of tension. 4. Now push the candy bar back to where it originally started. Move the ends of the candy bar in opposite directions. This is shearing. 5. Now pinch the candy bar together. This is what happens when plates collide and form mountain ranges. Notice how some of your chocolate pieces are overlapping each other.
