Across
- 5. A type of fault where compression forces the hanging wall to move up.
- 6. At this type of fault, tension causes the hanging wall to slip down.
- 9. Shearing occurs at this type of fault.
- 10. Type of stress that occurs at transform boundaries.
- 11. Surface waves with both longitudinal and transverse motion and cause great destruction.
- 12. The underground starting point of an earthquake.
- 13. Instrument used to measure the speed of waves to determine an earthquake's epicenter.
Down
- 1. Tension occurs as rocks are stretched and pulled at this type of boundary.
- 2. This occurs on the surface where rocks are brittle.
- 3. These waves travel fastest and can pass through liquids, gases, and solids.
- 4. The squeezing of rock at a convergent boundary.
- 7. Caused by tremendous stress on the crust over time resulting in a change in volume and or shape of rocks.
- 8. The place where an earthquake is felt first above the focus.
- 9. Shearing waves that travel only through solids and cause moderate damage.
