The Haywired scenario—headed by Tom Brocher and others—is a prepatory measure meant to ready law enforcement, fire fighters, uti

lity workers, etc. for damage to infrastructure that will happen during a great Hayward earthquake. True or False? The Haywired scenario plans for a similar amount of shaking compared to the 1868 Hayward earthquake. Select one: True or False? The Haywired scenario plans for a similar amount of shaking compared to the 1868 Hayward earthquake.
True or False? The amount of damage due to the 1868 Hayward earthquake is equal to our expectated consequences following the upcoming next Hayward fault earthquake.

Answer:

1) The Haywired scenario—headed by Tom Brocher and others—is a preparatory measure meant to ready law enforcement, fire fighters, utility workers, etc. for damage to infrastructure that will happen during a great Hayward earthquake. The right option is True.  

2) The Haywired scenario plans for a similar amount of shaking compared to the 1868 Hayward earthquake. The correct option is True.

3) The amount of damage due to the 1868 Hayward earthquake is equal to our expected consequences following the upcoming next Hayward fault earthquake. The right answer is False.  

Explanation:

1) The Haywired scenario is a 3D virtual sequence in which a hypothetical earthquake of magnitude 7 in the San Francisco Bay can cause chaos. An interdisciplinary panel of scientists have designed a hypothetical mainshock in the HayWard Fault and its possible impact and consequences of the ground shaking beneath Oakland. The idea behind this scenario is to improve the quality and reactiveness of Internet and telecommunication to react to such a hazard. They are seeking to prevent gaps in knowledge and communication needs and solve any "communication congestion" so that law enforcement, fire fighter, utility workers and any other service to work effectively under such a disaster.  

2) The Hayward scenario is based on a large earthquake that hit the San Francisco Bay in 1868. Its magnitude was 6.8 and there is a high probability of such a massive quake occurring again. Scientists are also concerned with “recurrence interval” on the fault as this type of events tend to be equally or exceed the previous one in a cyclical flow of time.  

3) The main difference between the earthquake that stroke in 1868 and the currently expected is that at that time damage was contrived to a small number of buildings as the land was just developing with scarce population. Conversely, an earthquake of that magnitude would threaten more than 7 million people leaving near the Hayward Fault. Apart from causing a vast destruction of infrastructure and building, it would seriously hit the national economy.

he hot spot volcanoes of Iceland and Hawaii create a tremendous amount of basalt, so nearby beaches are made of
Margaret [11]

As a result of the hot spot volcanoes of Iceland and Hawaii producing a huge amount of basalt, the nearby beaches are made of <u>black sand.</u>

<u></u>

<h3>What is the effect of Basalt on sand?</h3>

Basalt is a black volcanic rock that is commonly found around volcanoes. It has this coloration and appearance as a result of a high concentration of augite and other dark minerals.

Areas with a high concentration of basalts, such as beaches in Iceland and Hawaii, will reflect this dark hue coloration by generating black sand when combined with basalt.
