When our earth shakes due to

When our earth shakes due to the movements of plates below the earth’s crust it is known as Earthquake. Earthquakes are natural disasters, which kill thousands of people in an instant and can destroy cities and countries- human habitation across miles.

Hi

I certainly enjoyed the way you explore your experience and knowledge of the subject! Keep up on it. Thanks for sharing the info Miami Rhinoplasty

These are formed by tension,

These are formed by tension, compression, or shear stresses that cause the rock to break and move. It is true that faults are very common along plate boundaries, but the can form almost anywhere there is stress within a rock that forces it to break. But these could be related to earthquake.

lil yosh

I liked this video it was nice. I hope others who watch it like it too.

fault video

I really liked the video because it helped me to know a lot more about faults and how they move and form.

Faults video

My personal opinion is that it was pretty cool because it helped me understand different faults. Like the reverse fault because it is caused by pressure building over time, then an earthquake occurs.

the fault video

It was awesome. It helped me understand faults much better. The reverse fault's footwall goes higher, the normal faults footwall goes lower, and the strike slip goes left to right. Thank you, it was really cool the way you went into the rocks and did what you did!

fault video

I love how the video showed how some of the diffrent faults form.

Vid-bits

These are short, science oriented videos that don't fit neatly into other categories. Many are just for fun, as I learn more about the world of video.
