<h3>ANSWER:</h3>

A. It gauges fault movement during an earthquake.

D. It increases in magnitude as the amount of damage increases.

E. It determines an earthquake’s magnitude based on the size of its seismic waves.

It can measure earthquakes even of 4.5 or above all over the world through the use of seismograph where seismic waves interprets the magnitude of earthquake. A Richter number of less than 2.0 is not felt by people whereas Richter number of 8.0 to 9.9 show massive destruction. Hence the magnitude of increases of Richter scale when damage is increased.

Does the timing of a tsunami affect its impact?
s344n2d4d5 [400]

As soon as a tsunami approaches the coast, its speed decreases considerably. This is because the speed of a tsunami depends on the depth of the water; the lesser the depth of the water, the lesser the speed of an approaching tsunami. However, there is no change in the overall impact of a tsunami.

What plate movement results in volcanoes?
sattari [20]

Answer:

collision

Explanation:

Most volcanoes form at the boundaries of Earth’s tectonic plates. These plates are huge slabs of the Earth’s crust and upper mantle, which fit together like pieces of a puzzle. These plates are not fixed, but are constantly moving at a very slow rate. They move only a few centimeters per year. Sometimes, the plates collide with one another or move apart.
