I’ve been warned that an earthquake of 7.2 magnitude will hit where I live. The epicenter is a bit far but what if you live on the fault line? Will it be very strong? What happens if there are high-rise buildings on top of a fault line but not directly on the epicenter? Will it fall/topple down? My parents work in high-rise buildings near the fault line. I’m really scared. Thanks

I’m trying to write an essay and I don’t know what psychologically fault line is HELP!

Michiko Kakutani of the New York Times states that in Atonement, McEwan explores the “psychological fault lines” running through the lives of his characters. Write an essay in which you analyze the ways in which McEwan does this and to what effect.

I’ve heard that maybe the Plum River Fault Line does, but I can’t find anything to back that up. If you could site your source(s) that would be great! Thanks!

I am doing a report for my forensics class and I need to read Fault Line by Sarah Andrews, but I unfortunately do not have the time to read it. Instead, is there a website that has a plot summary of the book besides sparknotes, since they do not have one. Or if anyone has read the book and knows what happens, that would be extremely helpful.

If an earthquake occurs, a fault line will break through to the surface. If you see a rock layer where a fault line does not continue to the surface, what has happened?

Okay, there have been a lot of earthquakes recently: a small on in Chicago, the one in Haiti, one in Chile, one in Mexico and one near Tibet, and now there’s volcanic activity in Iceland, which is basically a little chunk of land on a fault line. All of the earthquakes except for the 2.5 one in
Chicago have been above 7.0 in magnitude. Does this mean something’s going on with the earth’s crust?

I know it causes earthquakes, but what actually caused the fault line to appear?

Thanks! :]

I heard of another big volcano, near there another threat to it’s fault line.
I had heard, though that it might eventaully, affect the fault thatsin the middle of the two sets of contenents
and the platonics are dividings these further from eachother and it would the biggest in the world disaster. I heard this on the news by the way.

Or do earthquakes start/originate per fault line?
For example, does the San Adreas fault move/crack when there’s an earthquake at the San Fernando/Northridge fault?

If not, is it on any fault line?

I need to know what it would look like inside a fault line, mostly similar to the San Andreas fault.
Is there a fault that lets you see deep into the earth?
If anyone has any interesting facts about fault lines, that’d also be great.

I’m doing a research paper for my chemistry class and They’ve given me a map with and have told me to find the best solution for a nearby town to provide their own power, there is a fault line with recent periodic seismic activity in the area they show me, I’m asking what would this fault line do about the power plant. I’ve got a few ideas but I can’t be certain and I can’t find this anywhere on the web. Please help? Thanks!!!!

I live in Missouri pretty much right on this fault line. I was wondering if you know about any new predictions regarding this fault line. Is a quake way over due? Do they have an estimated time on when we should get a quake? Where can I go to find this information? Thank you.

Will this earthquake in Chile effect the fault line in California in which has been overdued for a big earthquake? Intensify it in some way?

I’ve read that an large earthquake only lasts seconds or minutes. So how can they do so much damage?

Also, what are you supposed to do in an earthquake? I’ve heard you are supposed to hide under a table or other sturdy furniture, but wouldn’t the table just slide away if the ground is shaking so much?

I live in Utah and there is supposed to be a major earthquake sometime pretty soon, and my school is directly on a fault line so I’m a little scared….any information would be appreciated. Thanks!

With there now being 5 earthquakes to hit within about a weeks time, what does that mean for us? Is this some sort of sign? Should we be worried about more earthquakes in the coming days?
Not trying to get all paranoid here, but its worrying me. I’ve never heard of earthquake activity like this before, just one after another. It makes me wonder if something is wrong. And I also wonder, since these earthquakes are happening along this fault line, if something can happen around that fault line, like for instance, something splitting in two?

Hey. Just wondering, what is the name of the fault line in Virginia called and where in Virginia is it located? I know we have one here somewhere but I don’t know the name of it and where it is. I have felt a few in my lifetime and including last night so yeah…
Thanks
Nevermind, I did some more extensive research on it and found that Virginia has 7 fault lines:
Mountain Run Fault, Brookneal Fault, Shores Fault, Lakeside Fault, Spotsylvania Fault, Hylas Fault

Well, I just discovered an unusual long crack in my house. It stretches from the end of the house, through the tiles and into the garage cement. It is not moving diagnally through the house. Could this be a sign of an upcoming earthquake or is this actually a fault line? I live in Southern California, btw.
