2

ANS.D

Seismology

Seismologist

The science which deals with the earthquakes is called seismology.

The scientist who studies earthquakes is called seismologist.

2

ANS.2

1. Millions Of years ago, all continents were joining together into a supercontinent. This super continent was known as Pangaea. The concept of Pangaea was put forward by a German meteorologist named Alfred Wegener while attempting to explain the present day distribution of continents and oceans through his continental drift.

6

2. The improvement of Wagener’s theory of continental drift and the inclusion of the idea of sea-floor spreading led to the development of the concept of Plate Tectonic. According to Plate Tectonics, the earth’s crust consists of six major and 20 minor tectonic plates all of which float independently. The energy required to move these plates is produced by the internal heat of the earth.

3. The volcanoes which erupt frequently and throw out lava, gases, ashes and rocks are called active volcanoes. Ex:- Stromboli, Etna volcanoes.

4. The earthquake waves which are the first to arrive are called the primary waves. These waves travel very fast at a speed of about six km per second and cause small displacements.

5. The earthquake waves which travel over the surface of the earth are called surface waves. These waves are last to arrive. They are very powerful and cause most of the damage.

6. The instrument used to measure the intensity of earthquake is the Richter scale. This scale ranges from zero to nine. It shows the force of the earthquake.

LEVEL-2 ANSWERS:-

ANS.3

1. The force which originates from within the earth is called endogenic force.

1

ANS

2. Volcanoes which have not erupted for hundreds of years are called extinct or dead volcanoes.

1

ANS

3. The shaking of the earth’s surface due to sudden movement is called earthquake.

1

ANS

4. The instrument used to record earthquake tremors is called seismograph.

1

LEVEL-3 ANSWERS:-

ANS.4

1. In 1912 Alfred Wegener put forward the theory of continental drift to explain the present day distribution of continents and oceans. The theory states that millions of years ago all land mass were joined together into a supercontinent called the Pangaea. Later, the Pangaea broke and the continents drift apart due to horizontal displacement.

3

ANS

2. Earthquake can occur as a result of volcanic eruption, movement o f lithospheric plate and bomb explosions. An earthquake occurs due to lithospheric plate movement when two plates move past each other in opposite directions. The edges of the plates grind with each other while passing and this build up pressure on the rocks. When the pressure exceeds the rock strength, the rocks fracture to cause an earthquake.

3

ANS

The major earthquake belts of the Earth are:-

3

Circum-Pacific belt: It is located along the coastal margins of North America, South America and east Asia.

i. Mid-Continental Belt: It is located in the Alpine mountains, Mediterranean Sea, northern and eastern Africa and the Himalayas.

ii. Mid- Atlantic Ridge belt: It is located along the Mid-Atlantic ridge and in the adjoining islands.

The earthquake belt in India is mainly confined to the Himalayan region and the Ganga-Brahmaputra valley.

ANS

The causes of the Bhuj earthquake were:-

ii. Sea-floor spreading of the Indian Ocean at the rate of five cm per year.

iii. Gradual northward movement of the Indian plates.

iv. The reactivated faults below the surface in the Kachchh region.

3

ANS.5

1. The concept of plate tectonic is based on Wagener’s Theory of continental drift and the idea of sea-floor spreading. According to Plate Tectonics, the earth’s crust consists of six major and 20 minor tectonic plates. These plates are called lithospheric or tectonic plates. All the plates float independently. They move continuously but very slowly at the rate of about a few millimeters every year. The energy required to move these plates is produced by the internal heat of the earth.

4

ANS

2. The forces help in the movements of the lithospheric or tectonic plates. On the basis of their sources of origin, forces are of two types namely endogenic and exogenic.

4

Endogenic Forces:- The forces which originate from within the earth are called endogenic forces. These forces can produce slow or sudden movement or both. They also cause horizontal and vertical movements.

Exogenic Forces:- The forces which originate on the earth’s surface are called exogenic forces. Erosional and depositional work by rivers, wind, glaciers and sea waves are examples of exogenic forces.

ANS

3. The volcanoes of the world are distributed along two major belts namely the Pacific Ring of fire and the Mid-World Mountain belt. Most of the active volcanoes of the world are located along a circular belt around the Pacific Ocean. Thus this belt is known as the ‘Pacific Ring of Fire’ and it coincides with the edge of the lithospheric plates. The dormant and extinct volcanoes are mostly located along the Mediterranean Sea. This belt is known as the Mid-World Mountain belt.

4

ANS

4. There are three types of earthquake waves classified on the basis of their mode of travel. They are-

ii. Primary Waves:- The earthquake waves which are the first to arrive are called the primary waves. These waves travel very fast at a speed of about six km per second and cause small displacements.

iii. Secondary Waves:- The secondary waves arrive after the primary waves. They produce a strong shaking action.

iv. Surface Waves:- The earthquake waves which travel over the surface of the earth are called surface waves. These waves are last to arrive. They are very powerful and cause most of the damage.
