PPT-Earthquake Physics Reflection

Briefly explain the intent of this cartoon Why do earthquakes occur Which of the following diagrams represents a normal fault What is your evidence A B TPS What is going on here. Are You Prepared To Ride It Out? We have heard it so many times –the “big one” is coming. In our lifetime, we still haven’t seen or felt that huge earthquake. That shouldn’t stop us from preparing. The Transamerica Pyramid, San Fransisco. It has been build pyramid shaped as this is hard to topple over. . http://. Footage of the transamerica pyramid. /. The Beijing National Stadium, China. To earthquake-proof the stadium, the bowl and roof were split into two separate elements and the bowl split into eight zones, each with its own stability system and effectively its own building. .
