Explanation:
Tectonic hazards are a type of natural hazards such as earthquakes and tsunamis that involve the movement of tectonic plates in the earth's crust. When the plates move, they can become stuck as a result of friction and this can build up tension and cause the plates to let go.
The effects of tectonic hazards vary between areas of contrasting wealth. People in low income countries are more at risk to the effects of tectonic hazard than those in high income countries. The unavailability of trained scientists to monitor and predict the hazards, the unavailability of good emergency services, medical services and bad living condition which are associated with low income countries make them more vulnerable to the effects of tectonic hazards.
Very good examples are the Gorkha, Nepal earthquake of 2015 with magnitude 7.8 and the L'Aquilla, Italy earthquake of 2009 with magnitude 6.3
The primary and secondary effects of both earthquakes vary widely because Nepal is a low income country and Italy, a high income country.
In Italy, 305 people died and 1500 people were injured. 10,000 to 15, 000 buildings collapsed and about 67,500 people were made homeless.
In Nepal, 8692 people died and 20,000 people were injured. Almost 3 million people were made homeless.
Comparing the primary effects of both earthquakes, it is evident that there were more casualties and deaths in Nepal because of its inability to cope with the effects of the earthquake due to its low income state.
Italy was better prepared and coped better which lead to less casualties and recovery time.
