<p> Chapter 19 - Earthquakes 19.1- Forces within Earth Earthquakes Result of movement of crust produced by ______. Stress = total ______acting on crustal rocks Builds up ______ Overcomes strength of rocks and causes movement along ______in rock Earthquake = ______caused by movement in crust</p><p>Stress Three types ______– decrease volume of material Tension – pulls material ______ ______– causes material to twist</p><p> Strain = ______of material in a response to stress</p><p>Deformation Elastic – when a material is______, bent, or stretched at ______stress Material can return to “______” when stress is zero Example: Pulling on a rubber band</p><p>Deformation ______– stress builds up past elastic limit Permanent deformation – stays changed even when stress is ______ Point of Rupture = ______ Example: Pulling rubber band until it breaks</p><p>Deformation Most materials exhibit varying degrees of plastic and ______deformation</p><p>Faults Any fracture or system of fractures along which Earth moves Happens along ______regions Fault ______= surface along which movement takes place</p><p>Faults ______Fault – form as a results of horizontal and ______compression that squeezes rock Seen near ______plate boundaries Two areas end up ______together after faulting</p><p> ______fault – movement partly horizontal and partly vertical ______movement pulls rocks apart and stretches crust Vertical movement causes one side of rock to move ______relative to the other side Two areas end up ______apart after faulting</p><p> Strike-slip ______– caused by horizontal shear Movement is mainly horizontal in opposite direction Example: San Andreas Fault Creates ______features after movement</p><p>Earthquake waves ______waves = vibration of the ground produced during an earthquake Primary waves = ______and push rocks in same direction wave is traveling Secondary waves = cause rocks to move at ______angles relative to wave direction Slower than ______waves ______waves = cause most destruction and take longest to past Slowest wave, only travel of Earth’s ______</p><p>Seismic Waves Earthquake ______= point where waves originate Epicenter = point on surface directly ______focus</p><p>In-Class Assignment/Homework 19.1 WKT</p>
