Answer:

Hello!

Question 1: What is an earthquake? Answer: An earthquake is the shaking of the surface of the Earth resulting from a sudden release of energy in the Earth's lithosphere that creates seismic waves.

Question 2: What are faults? Answer: In geology, a fault is a planar fracture or discontinuity in a volume of rock across which there has been significant displacement as a result of rock-mass movements.

Question 3: Why are earthquakes more likely to occur near faults? Answer: Notice that many plate boundaries do not coincide with coastlines. Earthquakes can also occur far from the edges of plates, along faults. Faults are caused by all that bumping and sliding the plates do. They are more common near the edges of the plates.

Question 4: What happens when the plates grind against each other? Answer: An earthquake is caused by the movement of Earth's crustal plates grinding against one another.

Question 5: Is it true that when vibrations reach earth surface as earthquakes occur? Answer: Yes! It's true that it vibrates near the earth surface!

First we have to find how much water leaked
5galllons-3 gallons=2 galllos of water leaked
Now we know $\frac{2 galllons}{10 minutes}$
Finally we can simplify it $\frac{2 gallons}{10 minutes}= \frac{1 gallon}{5 minutes}$ - its the answer
