11. Name the three types of faults.
$100

12. Normal Reverse Strike-slip
$100

13. In a normal fault, this is the part of the fault that drops.
$200

14. The hanging wall
$200

15. This fault is created when stress squeezes the crust together.
$300

16. What is a reverse fault.
$300

17. A fault-block mountain is created from two of these types of faults when their hanging walls drop.
$400

18. What are normal faults.
$400

19. If a river is flowing from the hanging wall to the footwall, this is what happens to the river if there is a normal fault.
$500

20. Since the hanging wall drops, a lake would form where the river hits the raised footwall.
$500

21. This force adds energy to rock and can cause it to change shape.
$100

22. What is stress?
$100

23. This is a bend in a rock (either up or down) that comes when compression squeezes the Earth’s crust.
$200

24. What is a fold?
$200

25. These are the three types of stress.
$300

26. What are compression, tension and shearing?
$300

27. This is the stress that PULLS the crust apart.
$400

28. What is tension?
$400

29. This stress creates thrust faults.
$500

30. What is compression.
$500

31. This is the spot on a fault under the surface where an earthquake occurs.
$100

32. What is the focus?
$100

33. This is the order in which seismic waves arrive.
$200

34. What is P wave, S wave, and then Surface wave.
$200

35. This seismic wave moves by compressing and expanding like an accordian.
$300

36. What is the P wave?
$300

37. Daily Double

38. This scale measures the energy released by an earthquake
$400

39. What is the Moment Magnitude scale?
$400

40. This is what happens to the S-P interval when a station is closer to the epicenter.
$500

41. Why does the S-P interval get smaller?
$500

42. This is a large wave of water created by an earthquke that occurs under the ocean.
$100

43. What is a Tsunami?
$100

44. This is liquefaction.
$200

45. What is a mudslide that happens when loosely packed soil is violently shaken mixing with groundwater?
$200

46. This may cause more damage and injury than the original earthquake because buildings are already weakened.
$300

47. What is an aftershock?
$300

48. This design controls the shaking of a building during an earthquake.
$400

49. What is a base-isolated building?
$400

50. Because a building could be collapsing, this is what you should NOT do if you are in a building when an earthquake hits.
$500

51. What is to run outside?
$500

52. If geologists measure an increase in pressure along a fault, they know this may happen.
$100

53. What is an earthquake?
$100

54. Creep meters & Laser-ranging devises measure this type of movement.
$200

55. What is horizontal movement?
$200

56. These devices only measure vertical movement.
$300

57. What are Satellites and tiltmeters
$300

58. This the type of fault that a creep meter would be stretched across.
$400

59. What is a strike-slip fault?
$400

60. This is why geologists cannot yet predict earthquakes.
$500

61. What is geologists can’t be sure WHEN & WHERE an earthquake will be released along a fault?
$500

62. This is a fold in rock that bends upward.
$100

63. What is an anticline?
$100

64. This is another name for L-waves
$200

65. What is a surface wave?
$200

66. This is what seismographs record.
$300

67. What is the movement of the ground?
$300

68. This is how scientists determine the distance from the seismograph station to the epicenter.
$400

69. What is to measure the difference in arrival times of the P and S waves?
$400

70. This is any change in volume or shape of the crust.
$500

71. What is deformation?
$500

72. Final Game Questions

73. This is the S-P interval & amplitude of this seismogram.

74. What is 44 seconds & 170 mm

75. And the winner is…..
