Question

An earthquake has a high magnitude but a low intensity. Which statement best explains this?(1 point)

1 Magnitude measures the duration of the earthquake, while intensity measures the amount of damage.

2 Magnitude measures the energy released by the earthquake, while intensity measures the amount of damage.

3 Magnitude measures the duration of the earthquake, while intensity measures the energy released by the earthquake.

4 Magnitude measures the energy released by the earthquake, while intensity measures its duration.

The National Seismic Hazard Map classifies Region A as having the “highest hazard” and Region B as having the “lowest hazard.” Based on this classification, which conclusion can you draw?(1 point)

1 There is more likely to be an earthquake in Region A than in Region B.

2 There will definitely be an earthquake in Region A in the near future.

3 Region A is better prepared for an earthquake than Region B.

4 There will not be an earthquake in Region B in the near future.

How are P waves different from S waves?(1 point)

1 P waves push and pull in the same direction as the wave, and S waves move up and down.

2 P waves cause damage, and S waves do not cause damage.

3 P waves move under Earth’s surface, and S waves move along Earth’s surface.

4 P waves travel slowly, and S waves travel quickly.

What does a seismograph measure?(1 point)

1 the total amount of energy released by an earthquake

2 the distance from the epicenter of an earthquake

3 the vibrations produced by an earthquake

4 the amount of damage that results from an earthquake

Answer 1

We do not do your homework for you. Although it might take more effort to do the work on your own, you will profit more from your effort. We will be happy to evaluate your work though.

What are your choices?

Answer 2

pls help

Answer 3

1.C magnitude measures energy released by earthquake, while intensity measures amount of damage
2.C there is more likely to be an earthquake in A than in B
3.A p waves push and pull

Answer 10

Yes SOME KIDS have too much to handle in life and can’t deal with school

Answer 11

Unit 3 lesson 2: Tracking Earthquakes Quick check 2024:

1. Magnitude measures the energy released by the Earthquake, while intensity measures the amount of damage.
2. There is more likely to be an Earthquake in a "highest hazard" location than in a "lowest hazard" location.
3. P waves push and pull in the same direction as the wave, and S waves move up and down.
4. The vibrations produced by an Earthquake.
