Earthquakes
Many earthquakes happen each year which is bad for us. Earthquakes damage people’s properties by shaking the ground so violently that the building collapses and then millions or billions of dollars are wasted. The Earth shaking does not kill the people the building that collapses on the humans kills them. Hundred of thousands of people have died in an earthquake, can we stop the deaths of people and the financial damage? Yes, we can, there are several systems that we can use several systems: base isolation, tuned mass damper, and earthquake invisibility cloak.
Volcanoes
Volcanoes are mountains that heavy amounts of magma shoot out and then it cools down into lava. Volcanoes form when to tectonic plate slides under one another and then creates friction. There are types of volcanoes and they are dormant, inactive, active and extinct. Dormant is when a volcano that has not erupt in a long period of time but it still can erupt one day. Active volcanoes are volcanoes are active. Inactive volcanoes are volcanoes that are inactive. Extinct volcanoes are volcanoes that don’t erupt anymore and they are extinct.
Tectonic plates
There are 3 different types of Tectonic plates and they are Convergent Divergent and they are convergent, divergent and transform boundaries. Tectonic plate movement create like the subduction zone. The subduction zone is when to tectonic plates from the lithosphere come together riding on over the other. The subduction zone actually made out famous mountain known as Mount Everest. Tectonic plates cause earthquakes to because of friction. When two tectonic plates collide, they make the Earth start to shake and rumble and when that happens properties get damaged because of the earthquake that is caused by the friction of tectonic plate movement.
