QQ: Create a circle concept map about Earthquakes.
Safety Concerns.
2
Today’s Objective: I understand how energy travels through the Earth
3
5 min to take attendance Key: City Plate Earthquake Volcano Is there a relationship between plate boundaries and volcanoes & earthquakes?
4
5 min to take attendance Key: City Plate Earthquake Volcano Why do you think earthquakes, volcanoes, and plate boundaries are in the same place?
5
5 min to take attendance Key: City Plate Earthquake Volcano Where does most of the world’s population live? Why do you think they live there?
6
5 min to take attendance Key: City Plate Earthquake Volcano Is there a relationship between plate boundaries and volcanoes & earthquakes?
7
5 min to take attendance Key: City Plate Earthquake Volcano How does living where there are earthquakes and volcanoes affect the people living in those areas?
8
How do you think scientists address these issues?
5 min to take attendance Key: City Plate Earthquake Volcano How do you think scientists address these issues?
9
Do you notice a pattern? What does it tell you?
Focus Depth Key: km km km What does it tell you?

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
12
Can animals predict earthquakes?
Hyperlink text box to video of animals at zoo Can animals predict earthquakes?
13
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
14
Largest movement of earthquake felt here:
Epicenter: Point on surface directly above focus Focus: The point in the lithosphere where the rock breaks
15
Where do epicenters occur?
Fracture Fault Rock is weaker than pressure and stress upon it.
16
Hypothesis: Procedure: Time movement of springs
17
Data: WAVE TYPE: TRIAL # TIME OBSERVATION (SKETCH AND DESCRIPTION) 1 2
3 AVERAGE WAVE TYPE
18
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.
19
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.
20
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.
21
ANALYIZE THE DATA: DESCRIBE WHAT YOU NOTICE ABOUT THE 3 TYPES OF WAVES. ARE THERE ANY PATTERNS IN YOUR DATA?
22
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?
23
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
24
Measures seismic waves
Seismograph: Measures seismic waves
25
Measures earthquakes by graphing the waves of energy
SEISMOGRAPH Measures earthquakes by graphing the waves of energy
27
P-Waves (Primary) Push and pull underground rocks Causes structures on the surface to move back and forth Least powerful Fast
28
S-Waves (Secondary) Horizontal: Rocks move from side to side Damaging effects Slower Only through rock
29
L-Waves (Love) Vertical and sideways: Rocks move up and down
Occurs on surface Fastest of all Most destructive
30
Rocking and Rolling!

Splish Splash...I was taking a bath!

Tsunami Series of huge waves caused by earthquakes under the ocean Tidal Wave
