Transform fault

stretches through Oregon and into Vancouver, British Columbia and sits northeast of the San Andreas Fault line that runs 750 miles through California. This fault creates the tectonic boundary between the Northern America and Pacific Plates. The three types of plate boundaries are convergent, meaning basically they are colliding together, divergent meaning they are pulling away from one another and transform which means that the plates slide past each other.…

Disasters are always undesirable in any part of the world and bring about significant losses in life and property.

Strike-slip fault: This fault is caused due to shearing. The rocks tend to push each other horizontally in opposite directions. Ex: San Andreas Fault. Figure 6: Types of faults The magnitude of an earthquake is measured using Richter’s scale with the help of an instrument called a seismograph, which measures and records the intensity of earthquakes…

CHAPTER 5 EXPERIMENTATION 5.1 Spur gear terms and concept Fig. 5.1 Terminology definitions for spur gears The radial distance from the pitch circle to the outside diameter is called as addendum. The radial distance between the pitch circle and the root diameter is called as dedendum. The distance of the arc along the pitch circle from one side of a gear tooth to the other is called as circular thickness. The length of the arc of the pitch circle from one point on a tooth to the same…

showing the powerful natural disaster, this film concentrates on informing catastrophe and post-apocalyptic disaster. To begin with, the San Andreas is set in the city of Los Angeles, with San Francisco Bay Area and follows the story of San Andreas fault. The main character of this film is named Raymond Gaines, who is a helicopter…

types of earthquake and each with special characteristics. Tectonic earthquakes generate some of the largest seismic waves. This is important because it ca cause damage to whole regions. Seismicity is the sudden formation of a new fault and unexpected slip on an existing fault. The focus and epicenter are two terms used by seismologists when describing the location of…

Spouses act as a guiding force for those around them. Also, spouses do not only affect their partner but also influence others around them. In the memoir, “Tuesdays with Morrie”, Mitch is engrossed in his work life that he does not realize that he is isolating himself from the people who love him.
