1. The displacement of its structures are expected to occur.

2. It does not have earthquakes.
3. It does not show signs of generated earthquakes.
4. It will possibly be the cause of another earthquake.
5. It shows evidence of having moved at least once in the past
100,000 years.
6. There is no displacement of geologic structures in an area.

EXPLAIN:
Active and Inactive Faults
Active faults are areas along in which displacement is expected to
occur. Since a shallow earthquake produces displacement across a
fault, all shallow earthquakes occur on active faults. These are
considered to be geologic hazards. Inactive faults are areas that can
be identified, but which do not have earthquakes.

EXPLAIN:
What causes Earthquake?
An earthquake occurs because of geologic forces inside the Earth.
These inner forces build up slowly and eventually become so strong
that may cause underground rocks to break.
When this happens, tremendous energy is released causing the
ground to move and shake. These waves of energy travel through the
Earth are called seismic waves.
Seismic waves behave in different ways, depending on what they
encounter along the way.

What are Seismic Waves?

Seismic waves are the waves of energy that travel either along or
near the Earth’s surface. This energy that travels through the Earth is
recorded by seismographs.
Types of Earthquake Waves
The two main types of earthquake waves are body waves and surface
waves.
Body Waves
The body waves are seismic waves that travel through the interior of
the Earth. These waves are of higher frequency than surface waves.
The two types of body waves are primary and secondary waves.

Primary Waves
The first type of body waves are the P waves or primary waves.
These are the fastest kind of seismic waves, and consequently, the
first to arrive at a seismic station and recorded in the seismograph.
The P waves can move through solid rocks and fluids, like water or
 Page |7
Q2W3
the liquid layers of the Earth. They push and pull the rocks as they
move through just like the sound waves that push and pull the air.

Secondary Waves
The second type of body waves are the S waves or secondary waves.
These are waves that arrive second, after P waves are being detected
in the seismic station and recorded in the seismograph. S waves are
slower than P waves and can only move through solid rocks, not
through any liquid medium. This concludes that the Earth’s outer
core is liquid due to this property of the S wave. These waves move
rock particles up and down, or side-to-side perpendicular to the
direction that the waves are traveling in. S waves are also known as
transverse or shear waves, which create the shaking of the ground
back and forth perpendicular to the direction the waves are moving. S
waves have a velocity of 3 to 4 km/s.
