EARTHQUAKES
Every year earthquakes are responsible for a large number of deaths and vast amounts of destruction in various parts of the world. Most of these damaging earthquakes occur either in the narrow belt which surrounds the Pacific Ocean or in a line which extends from Burma to the Alps in Europe. Some of the destruction is directly caused by the quake itself. An example of this is the collapse of buildings which results in vibration. Other damage results from landslides, tsunamis (large ocean waves ) or major fires which are initiated by the quake. There are about a million quakes a year. Fortunately, however, not all of them are destructive. The intensity of an earthquake is measured on the Richter Scale, which goes from 0 upward. The highest magnitude recorded to date is 8.9. Major damage takes place from quakes ranging upwards from 6.0. Exceptions to this are those whose epicentres are located far from inhabited areas. * Answer the questions:
