Earthquakes
Earthquakes – being among the most deadly natural hazards – strike without any prior
warning, leaving catastrophe in their wake with terrible loss of human lives as well as
economic loss.
Technically, an earthquake (also known as tremor, quake or temblor) is a kind of
vibraƟon through the earth's crust. This vibraƟon occurs as a result of powerful
movement of rocks in the earth's crust. These powerful movements trigger a rapid
release of energy that creates seismic waves that travel through the earth. Earthquakes
are usually brief, but may repeat over a long period of Ɵme. (Earth Science. 2001)
Earthquakes are classified as large and small. Large earthquakes usually begin with slight
tremors but rapidly take form of violent shocks. The vibraƟons from a large earthquake
last for a few days known as a�ershocks. Small earthquakes are usually slight tremors
and do not cause much damage. Large earthquakes are known to take down buildings
and cause death and injury (Richter,
1935). According to some staƟsƟcs, there
may be an average of 500,000 earthquakes
every year but only about 100,000
can be felt and about 100 or so can cause
damage each year.
Earthquakes are dreaded by everyone.

Bergetar menembus kerak bumi. Getaran ini terjadi sebagai hasil dari kekuatan
Pergerakan bebatuan di kerak bumi. Gerakan kuat ini memicu dengan cepat
Pelepasan energi yang menciptakan gelombang seismik yang melintasi bumi. Gempa bumi
biasanya singkat, tapi mungkin berulang dalam jangka panjang Ɵme. (Ilmu Bumi 2001)
Gempa bumi tergolong besar dan kecil. Gempa besar biasanya dimulai dengan sedikit
tremor tapi cepat mengambil bentuk guncangan kekerasan. Getaran dari gempa besar
Terakhir selama beberapa hari dikenal sebagai gosip. Gempa kecil biasanya sedikit getaran
dan tidak menimbulkan banyak kerusakan. Gempa besar diketahui bisa menurunkan bangunan
dan menyebabkan kematian dan luka (Richter,
1935). Menurut beberapa staƟsƟcs, disana
Bisa jadi rata-rata 500.000 gempa
setiap tahun tapi hanya sekitar 100.000
Bisa dirasakan dan sekitar 100 atau lebih bisa menimbulkan
kerusakan setiap tahunnya
Gempa bumi ditakuti oleh semua orang.
