Earthquake Simulation

•Think back to the situation in the science starter…• Imagine that the left side of the room is Mexico•The center of the room is Seattle•The right side of the room is New York City•How can we figure out where the Earthquake hits and prevent future damage?

Lesson Essential Question

How do we locate Earthquakes?

Page 5: Science Starter Turn in your Dynamic Earth Homework & Graham Cracker Lab Grab your notebook Answer the following questions on a new page: An Earthquake

What do we know about Earthquakes?1. Anatomy of an Earthquake2. 3 Types of seismic waves3. Locating an Earthquake requires seismographs

Page 6: Science Starter Turn in your Dynamic Earth Homework & Graham Cracker Lab Grab your notebook Answer the following questions on a new page: An Earthquake

Anatomy of an Earthquake

Focus: The point underground where the Earthquake beginsFault: A break in the groundEpicenter: The point on the surface of the Earth directly above the focus

3 Seismic Waves

Primary (P Wave): Fastest wave, push/pull movement, least amount of damage

Secondary (S Wave): Slow wave, up/down movement, medium amount of damage

Page 8: Science Starter Turn in your Dynamic Earth Homework & Graham Cracker Lab Grab your notebook Answer the following questions on a new page: An Earthquake

SURFACE WAVES•Travel along the earth’s surface. They do not travel through the Earth. They move up and down or side to side. •Although it is the slowest, this is the most destructive type of wave!

Seismograph• The seismograph records ground

movements caused by earthquakes, explosions, or other Earth-shaking phenomena.

Locating an Earthquake Lab

• There will be a lab print out for every student• The data from the 3 seismographs is provided on your

handout• Use Figure 1 and Figure 2 to discover the distance from the

city to the epicenter• Use your compass and the map provided to you to draw your

3 circles• Identify the latitude and longitude of the Earthquake!

Viscosity Demo

•What is the difference between the 2 syrups?•What is the definition of viscosity?•How can a liquid become more viscous or less viscous?•How does this effect the violence of a volcanic eruption?•How does this relate to convection?

Today’s Summary

•As a group pull out one piece of paper• Everyone in the group should write down one thing

that they learned today• You can not write down something that someone in

your group has already stated•Make sure everyone’s name and group number is on

the paper!•Groups with great answers will get 3 points!
