  3. It’s Not My Fault $100 Q What is the surface along which rocks break and move?

  4. It’s Not My Fault $100 A Fault

  5. It’s Not My Fault $200 Q Three main types of faults

  6. It’s Not My Fault $200 A normal, reverse, strike-slip

  7. It’s Not My Fault $300 Q List the forces found at each type of fault

  8. It’s Not My Fault $300 A Normal TENSION Reverse COMPRESSION Strike-Slip SHEARING

  9. It’s Not My Fault $400 Q Name the type of fault shown here

  10. It’s Not My Fault $400 A Normal fault

  11. It’s Not My Fault $500 Q This is the total force acting on rocks at one point in time.

  12. It’s Not My Fault $500 A Stress

  13. Catch the Wave $100 Q List the 3 major types of waves

  14. Catch the Wave $100 A P-waves, S-waves, Surface waves

  15. Catch the Wave $200 Q Arrange the 3 types of waves in order from slowest to fastest AND from least destructive to most destructive ANSWER BOTH FOR CREDIT

  16. Catch the Wave $200 A SlowFast Surface, S, P LeastMost destructive P, S, Surface

  17. Catch the Wave $300 Q Which type(s) of waves originate at the focus?

  18. Catch the Wave $300 A P and S waves surface waves occur….at the surface!!

  19. Catch the Wave $400 Q Roughly, what time did the S-wave arrive at this seismic station?

  20. Catch the Wave $400 A ~38-40 minute mark

  21. Catch the Wave $500 Q How can we calculate the epicenter of an earthquake? Be sure to be specific with steps/process [4 major steps]

  22. Catch the Wave $500 A • Difference between P and S waves from seismogram • Plot on Travel-Time Curve graph • Locate epicentral distance (radius) • Use 3 seismic stations intersection=epicenter

  23. How Crazy Was That? $100 Q Scale to measure earthquakes based on their magnitude and energy of the largest seismic wave.

  24. How Crazy Was That? $100 A Richter scale

  25. How Crazy Was That? $200 Q Measure of energy released by an earthquake.

  26. How Crazy Was That? $200 A Magnitude

  27. How Crazy Was That? $300 Q • Compare and contrast a seismogram & seismograph • +50 for seismometer

  28. How Crazy Was That? $300 A • Seismograph= instrument detects and records seismic waves • Seismogram=graph showing the recorded seismic motion • Seismometer= pen that records seismic motion onto siesmogram

  29. How Crazy Was That? $400 Q Moment magnitude scale (MMS) measures earthquakes based on this?

  30. How Crazy Was That? $400 A Total amount of energy released during earthquake (displacement of rock & rigidity of rock)

  31. How Crazy Was That? $500 Q Why don’t scientists typically use the Richter Scale anymore?

  32. How Crazy Was That? $500 A • Richter used locally and can only measure EQ between 3.0-7.0; not accurate enough & requires Richter device.

  33. Til the Landslide Brought Me Down $100 Q • What can be said about the Ring of Fire and earthquake activity? WHY?

  34. Til the Landslide Brought Me Down $100 A • Ring of Fire is a ring of volcanic activity which also mirrors earthquake activity due to the plate boundary interactions.

  35. Til the Landslide Brought Me Down $200 Q • Briefly describe an ideal design MATERIAL for earthquake proof buildings. Support your answer.

  36. Til the Landslide Brought Me Down $200 A • Wood/Steel more flexible and will be able to support structure and absorb some of seismic energy

  37. Til the Landslide Brought Me Down $300 Q • Describe how liquefaction may occur during/after an earthquake.

  38. Til the Landslide Brought Me Down $300 A • Soil & other loose material becomes super saturated with water (flooding and damage to water lines) • Unable to support buildings and sturctures

  39. Til the Landslide Brought Me Down $400 Q Why is it incorrect to refer to a tsunami as a tidal wave?

  40. Til the Landslide Brought Me Down $400 A Tsunami is caused by sudden displacement in ocean floor and increases volume of water moving ashore but not necessarily in height. NOT CONTROLLED BY MOON/SUN LIKE TYPICAL OCEAN WAVES

  41. Til the Landslide Brought Me Down $500 Q • Describe 2 ways that scientists can determine the probability of an earthquake occurring in a particular area.

  42. Til the Landslide Brought Me Down $500 A • Studying EQ history/patterns/trends • Strain accumulation in rock & @ faults • Charting seismic gaps (sections located around faults that are known to be active but have been dormant)

  43. Mixed Bag $100 Q What is the largest mammal?

  44. Mixed Bag $100 A Blue whale

  45. Mixed Bag $200 Q • 111,111,111 x 111,111,111 = ?

  46. Mixed Bag $200 A 12,345,678,987,654,321 !

  47. Mixed Bag $300 Q The average person falls asleep in how many minutes? Must be within 1 minute

  48. Mixed Bag $300 A 7 minutes

  49. Mixed Bag $400 Q What is the most common name in the world?

  50. Mixed Bag $400 A Mohammed
