Vibrations in the ground that result from movement along breaks in Earth's lithosphere
A break in Earth's lithosphere where one block of rock moves toward, away from, or past another
Energy that travels as vibrations on and in Earth
Waves that originate where rocks first move along the fault
The location on Earth's surface directly above the earthquake's focus
Also called P-waves. Cause particles in the ground to move in a push-pull motion.
Also called S-waves. Cause particles to move up and down at right angles relative to the direction the wave travels
Cause particles in the ground to move up and down in a rolling motion
