Yesterday Morning a total magnitude of 4.0 earthquake strikes off the coastal area of southern California about 16 miles south of Port Hueneme & 19 miles south of Oxnard. USGS said that the center of that earthquake was the Pacific Ocean with a depth of approx 6 miles. This earthquake Begin at 2:13 am and Fortunately, there were no damage or injuries noticed by the sources.
So in reference to that Earthquake, we Are here showing you that what is Earthquake.? why does it Occur.? what are safety precautions to deal with Earthquakes.? And which was the largest Earthquake Ever.????
Ladies and Gentlemen !!
EarthQuake is basically an infinite loop and constantly moves forward, basically destroying everything in its path. It's like a sea of fire that keeps going out in waves, and if you do nothing at all, you can end up losing everything. In order to prevent that, you have to survive the whole wave, and then rebuild the city so that you can move on and survive another wave, like an earthquake. The place you start with is only the tip of the iceberg. The whole environment you're in is actually evolving. It's taking the world to new places.
Earthquake occurs because of the deformation of the material. So the reason why a quake occurs is that there is stress increase at the center of the earth. So after a strike of an anvil then there is an increase in stress and vibration and we will observe that vibration in the earth as well. So in such a case, a quake might happen. And there is also the case that the earthquake is caused by the lifting of the earth which is said to be related to the sun. So, it is said that an earth earthquake in the sun. So in these cases, earthquakes and sun-related phenomena are very important.
Earthquakes are produced in three different ways, in the type of earthquakes and period of time.
To survive in an EarthQuake there are some safety precautions that should be followed by the people to protect themselves and others, especially vulnerable populations, from possible injuries and collapsing buildings. Construction workers should also have training on earthquake safety.
These Earthquake safety precautions are very basic. Turn off all power, extension cords, and circuit breakers (if any). Then call emergency services or go outside if the power and water is cut off and safe for your family. Don't say you can't escape the basement, because you can, and if you can't escape, get help immediately.
If your basement is unstable, your basement may act like a pressure cooker (the body of the structure is always in contact with the earth, which takes the load of the structure. Furthermore, once a collapsing structure releases a significant volume of stress, earthquakes are imminent). Elevate furniture and family heirlooms so they don't fall and leave them out of the line of fire (explosion potential).
try to cover yourself and your family under a stronger and sturdy table or cover your face and head with your arms.
Stay Away from walls, doors, windows, glass, or any other material which could fall and provide damage.
and if you are outside of your home or in other words you are in an outdoor environment then try to follow these instructions.
don't worry just stay there.
Stay Away from buildings, trees, utility wires, streetlights, and other heavy materials that could fall.
And If you are in the vehicle follow these instructions.
Stop the vehicle as quickly as you can, don't move during shaking. Avoid stopping the vehicles under or near Buildings, Trees, Overpasses, underpasses, or utility wires. try to stay in a wider area something like Playing grounds. Once Earthquake Stops, move cautiously, try to avoid the usage of overpasses, underpasses, or even the roads which were affected during the EarthQuake.
These were Some of the Safety Precautions which must be followed during An EarthQuake to prevent damages and injuries.
Now let's talk about the Highest ranked EarthQuake of all time.
So Ladies and Gentlemen !!
The world's Highest ranked earthquake was Occured on 22 May 1960 near the city of Valdivia in southern Chile whose magnitude was recorded as 9.5 according to the United States Geological Survey(USGS).
This Earthquake is known as the "Great Chilean Earthquake" or also referred to as the "1960 Valdivia Earthquake."
