Earthquakes

The diagram below shows how plates move along a fault.

A. Describe the movement shown in the diagram.


$100

Part A

The diagram shows that the two plates move past each other in opposite directions along the fault. A fault is a great crack, or break, in Earth’s crust.

Scores


$200

Earthquakes

The diagram below shows how plates move along a fault.

B. Explain how the movement can cause an earthquake.


$200

Part B

As the plates move, the rocks on either side of the fault do not slide freely past one another. Instead, they stick, or become locked together. As the plates continue to move, the rocks are put under great pressure, causing them to bend or stretch until they reach their breaking point.

Suddenly, the rocks snap and slide past each other, releasing energy as vibrations that are felt as an earthquake.
