Question

What are the factors on which the intensity of earthquake depend? ​

Answer 1

Answer:

Some factors that affect intensity are the distance away from the epicenter, the depth of the earthquake, the population density of the area affected by the earthquake, the local geology of the are, the type of building construction in the area, and the duration of the shaking.

Answer 2

The factors which affect the intensity of earthquakes are as follows:

1. Earthquake's magnitude

• The speed and timing of the earthquake are important factors that affect the intensity of the earthquake. The more the speed, the greater the intensity.

2. Site's proximity to the fault

• The location of the place is also important. If it is located on unstable land, it will suffer a greater intensity of the earthquake than on land with a stable plain.

3. Soil type

• The soil type is related to the power of absorbing the tremor shocks. Different soils have different absorbing power, and thus it affects the intensity of the earthquake.
