EARTHQUAKES MEANING EFFECTS EARTHQUAKES MEANING EFFECTS
4
MEANING EARTH QUAKES : a sudden and violent movement or fracture within the earth’s crust followed by a series of shocks is called an earthquake. The movement is sudden and abrupt and short-lived but it causes a lot of damage.
5
CAUSES FOR EARTHQUAKES The colliding of continental and oceanic plates causes earthquakes. Violent and explosive volcanoes can cause destructive earthquakes. Minor causes of earthquakes are collapse of underground caves, landslides and man-made causes such as dams which causes a sudden rush of water and disturbs the rocks.
6
MERACALLI SCALE In1897 the Assam earthquAKE had a magnitude of 8.7. In 1960 the Chile eaarthquke had magnitude of 8.9, the highest yet recorded. Seismologists use the seismograph to measure the intensity of earth quake waves. It is a highly sensitive device to detect the slightest vibration of earth’s crust.
8
seismography The RICHTER scale measures the magnitude of an earthquake. It is logarithmic and open ended. It ranges from 0-8.9, the largest earthquake,yet recorded. the richter scale readings are taken on a Seismograph.
9
Survive from Earth quakes Beware of falling building and flying object Don’t go outside till the shaking stop completely Go to higher ground if you are near the coastal area Stand under a door frame or crouch under a table or chair or bed untill quakes stops
