Earthquake Quiz

 

Earthqakes come suddenly and can have devastating effects. This quiz is about how earthquakes behave, are discovered, and how they are measured. It's a tough one so expect to use Google a lot!

 

Deadline: April 30. Frankly I don't think many here are smart enough to solve this one! :cup: :) :)

 

Find the earthquake quiz here and post your results when you're done.

Well Sir, 12 of 16 for me on this one. :) That's a seat-o'-the-pants no-look-up-facts score, so I feel OK with 75%. I also got a charge from seeing the quizzes come up just hours after I found myself thinking "whatever happened to our quizzes?"

Shaking, rattling & rolling,

I only got fifteen out of sixteen, which tells me one of the questions was ambiguously phrased.:confused:

-That's the beauty of these quizzes; they don't tell you which ones you missed. This allows you to take it again & have another chance at the prizes.:doh:

[Tormod]

13 out of 16 is pretty fantastic. :doh:

I got an ok score BUT THE FIRST QUETION IS WRONG

"what does an earthquake usaly cuase"

"a. volcanos" what i put

 

the answer "c freaky noises" wth

 

i can explain in great depth why i am right and earthquakes can

cuase a volcano

[Tormod]

They can cause a volcano but they don't usually cause volcanoes, which is why that is not the right answer.

[anglepose]

What sorts answers freaky noises andalot of earth quakes dont cuase freaky noises

 

My bad about saying i got 16 that was writing mistake i think i must of tried to write somthing out of 16 but ended up writing "i got 16"

[anglepose]

Also have you ever heard of the ring of fire you should check that out look at where earthquakes have happned in relation to volcanos then look at earthquakes that have been recently before the volcanoes if you ask me the answer being freaky noise is a bit weird

[anglepose]

having said that it is often the volcano that cuases the quake so im not sure how many quakes cuase volcanos or they just happen together becuase of tetonic plates shifting hmmm ok i agree they dont often but i could think of a better answer than freaky noises

[Peter Parker]

I feel ashamed :lol: ...I got an 8 out of 16.

I need to research more on quakes
