Assuming this involves another form of shifting tectonic plates, the answer would be earthquakes. Another form of the question is asking for continental drift.
The highest tornade speed recorded was 302 MPH.
<u>Answer:</u>
Considering the example of Japan, it can be justified that both the primary and the secondary impacts of tectonic hazard cause the most damage.
<u>Explanation:
</u>
- Any tectonic activity of considerable magnitude generates tremors and causes earthquakes and related phenomenons.
- Japan has consistently been subject to the secondary impacts of such tectonic hazards like earthquakes and tsunamis.
- The areas close to the coasts of Japan are tectonically active making Japan vulnerable to its aftermaths.
- Moreover, Japan also has some dormant volcanoes which are a result of tectonic activity.
The mid-ocean ridges are elevated above the surrounding seafloor because Ridge rocks are hot and therefore of relatively less dense than adjacent cooler oceanic crust.
