i think it was when the earthquake happened last year
the smallest earthquake recorded on the Richter scale was 0.1
0.1 on the Richter scale! :D
One of the smallest earthquakes resulted from a grain of sand rolling off a pebble and striking the ground.
The 7.1 magnitude Olympia earthquake in 1949 is the largest earthquake to occur in the Seattle region since records began.
Anywhere where the earths plates meet. Earthquakes occur only were there is an epicenter. Were ever the epicenter is the earthquake will happen.
it takes well no one ever knows
Somewhere in the 3.0 to 4.0 magnitude range, depending on the geology and, of course, how close you are to the epicenter.
The most severe earthquake ever recorded was the 1960 Valdivia earthquake in Chile, which had a magnitude of 9.5.
Yes. An earthquake may occur in the ocean.
No. The earthquake that struck Haiti in 2010 was a 7.0, which is a very large earthquake, though by no means the largest. The smallest earthquakes are too small to even be felt.
Aftershocks can occur hours or days after an earthquake.
No, the Haiti earthquake in 2010 was not the strongest earthquake ever recorded. The strongest earthquake ever recorded was the 1960 Valdivia earthquake in Chile, which had a magnitude of 9.5 on the Richter scale.
