What is stress? What is strain? How to they compare and
contrast? (make a Venn diagram) Stress how much an object can take before breaking while strain measure until an object fractures. They both deal with stress
What are the 3 different types of faults? Describe each. strike-slip indicate rocks are sliding past each other horizontally, with little to no vertical movement. Both the San Andreas and Anatolian Faults are strike-slip. normal create space. Two blocks of crust pull apart, stretching the crust into a valley. The Basin and Range Province in North America and the East African Rift Zone are two well-known regions where normal faults are spreading apart Earth's crust also called thrust faults, slide one block of crust on top of another. These faults are commonly found in collisions zones, where tectonic plates push up mountain ranges such as the Himalayas and the Rocky Mountains.

How do the focus and the epicenter of earthquakes compare and contrast? They occur somewhat in the middle, but the epicenter is where the wave comes from Earthquake Guided Notes page494
The greater the distance between P and S waves on a seismograph the (longer or shorter) distance away from the epicenter. farther What is the name of the scale used to measure the energy released during an earthquake? What is the range of the scale? Ricter, 1 to 10 What is the name of the scale used to measure the intensity (damage done) during and earthquake? What is the range of the scale? Mercalli, 1 to 12
Describe the damage caused by earthquakes for a level 1, 5, and 10 1 is minor, 5 is medium damage, 10 is great disaster
