EARTHQUAKE FACTS
▪ There are more than a million earthquakes
a year but only a small amount are
actually felt.
▪ Out of the million earthquakes a year only
about 20 cause damage to buildings and
loss of life.

Focus and Epicenter
▪ Focus- The point beneath the earths surface where rocks break (energy is released)
▪ Epicenter- The area of land directly above the FOCUS. Most violent shaking happens here.

RING OF FIRE
▪ Ring of fire is the border of the Pacific
Plate.
▪ Results from Pacific plate being subducted
under other plates.
▪ Composed of 75% of the worlds
volcanoes.

Seismic Waves
▪ Earthquakes cause
shock waves to travel
through the earth.

Seismic Waves
▪ There are
three types of
seismic
waves
generated
from an
earthquake.

Primary Waves (P-waves)
▪ Are the fastest
waves
▪ Can travel through
solids and liquids

Secondary Waves (S Waves)
▪ Arrive after P
waves
▪ Travels through
solids NOT liquids
and gases.

Surface Waves (L waves)
▪ Move along the
earths surface side
to side
▪ Slowest of all
waves
▪ Cause the most
damage!
▪ Travel through
solids, not liquids
or gases.

MEASURING EARTHQUAKES
▪ MAGNITUDE- THE AMOUNT OF
ENERGY RELEASED FROM A
EARTHQUAKE
▪ RICHTER SCALE- A SCALE OF 1-10
BASED ON THE SIZE OF THE WAVES
GENERATED BY AN EARTHQUAKE

Structure of the EarthThe Earth’ interior is
broken up into 4 layers.
1) Crust- Outer layer of the Earth.
2) Mantle- Molten rock layer (magma)
3) Outer Core- semi-solid layer of magma some iron and nickel
4) Core- Solid layer of Iron and Nickel

Formation of a Volcano
▪ Magma - is a mixture of molten rock,
minerals and dissolved gases.
▪ Rocks begin to melt at 800º to 1200°C
▪ Molten rock beneath the earth crust is
called MAGMA when it reaches the
surface it is called LAVA.
