Delimiter between question and answer:

Tips:

  • No column headers.
  • Each line maps to a question.
  • If the delimiter is used in a question, the question should be surrounded by double quotes: "My, question","My, answer"
  • The first answer in the multiple choice question must be the correct answer.

Give three examples of secondary hazards
tsunami, landslide, fire
It is a direct hazard that can cause secondary hazards.
groundshaking
It is the main cause of destruction during an earthquake.

What type of wave can travel through solid materials only?
secondary wave
What type of wave that is also known as “compressional wave”
primary wave
Type of wave that can travel through solid and fluid materials
primary wave
What are the two forms of surface waves
love and rayleigh
What are the two forms of body waves?
primary and secondary
What is the difference between body and surface waves?
Body waves can travel through the Earth's inner layers, while surface waves occur on the surface of the lithosphere.
What are the two types of seismic waves?
body and surface
Why is it important to determine the epicenter of an earthquake?
To assess the damage zone so that authorities can rush the support and plan disaster relief accordingly.
The recording of the ground shaking at the specific location of the instrument
seismogram
The internal part of the seismograph, which may be a pendulum or a mass mounted on a spring
seismometer
It is the instrument used to record the motion of the ground during an earthquake
seismograph
Waves generated by earthquakes that travel through and along Earth’s surface
seismic waves
A fracture or zone of fractures between two blocks of rock
fault
It refers to the point directly above the focus on Earth’s surface
epicenter
It is the origin at which the earthquake occurs
focus / hypocenter
It is called as the sudden movement or shaking of the ground.
earthquake
Why do earthquakes occur?
Earthquakes occur due to the interaction of tectonic plates. Their movement generates huge amount of energy that make the ground shake.
Why is Earth’s interior hot?
Heat slowly accumulates from the radioactive decay of uranium, thorium and other radioactive isotopes in Earth’s interior.

crust (5 - 100 km thick)
Does the oceanic crust sink beneath the continental crust at the subduction zone? Why or why not?
Yes, because oceanic crust has a greater density.
