Which of the following factors affect the intensity of ground shaking?*1 pointthe angle between the fault and the maximum principal stress directionthe distance from the epicenterthe local geological conditionsthe magnitude of the earthquake

13.  The strength of the shaking from an earthquake is called ___________.*1 pointtremorsintensitymagnitudeseismic waves

Answer this using the PHIVOLCS Earthquake Intensity Scale (PEIS) *

During an earthquake, you will first encounter an inital shaking, followed by a different type of shaking. This later type of shaking is due to?Group of answer choicesS-WavesP-WavesTsunamisLandslides

Seismic events(earthquakes) induce shaking in the soil deposits. The associated shakingleads to a change in the stress state of the soil. Srinagar lies in Seismic Zone -V (IS:1893).Draw Mohr Circles for a soil element lying at a depth of 10 m from the ground surfacesubjected to an Earthquake of magnitude 7.5 Mw. Assume the water table to be a greatdepth.

Earthquake is one of the most devastating natural calamities which Blank 1 Question 2 (caused, will cause, had caused, causes) sudden shaking of the earth surface. It, not only causes damage to buildings and other structures but alsoBlank 2 Question 2 (affected, will be affected, had affected, affects) the surrounding environment and our lifestyle significantly. An earthquake can trigger many sudden changes in the environment which can Blank 3 Question 2 (would be classified, will classify, is classified, be classified) as primary and secondary. The subsidence and surface faulting Blank 4 Question 2 (is, was, were, are) the primary changes. The secondary effects are the displaced rocks, tsunami, ground cracks, liquefactions, landslides. These effects are known as earthquake environmental effects. The scales which use these effects of an earthquake as a parameter for assessment Blank 5 Question 2 (is known ,were known ,was known, are known) as Earthquake Intensity Scales. These scales Blank 6 Question 2 (quantified, quantification, quantity,quantify)  an earthquake based on the observed effects on the surroundings .The magnitude scales for earthquakes are logarithmic scales. The Richter scaleBlank 7 Question 2 (are based ,were based, had based, is based) on seismograph readings measuring Earth movement. In addition to the Richter scale, scientists also Blank 8 Question 2 (using ,will use, had used,use) a Moment Magnitude that measures the total energy of an earthquake, called the seismic moment. The seismic moment of an earthquake Blank 9 Question 2 (were determined, are determining, had determined, is determined) based on three factors. The first factor is the distance that rock slides along a fault surface after it breaks, called the fault slip. The second factor is the area of the fault surface that Blank 10 Question 2 (are, was, were, is)  actually broken by the earthquake. And the third factor is the measurement of how rigid the rocks are near the broken fault.
