Problem faced during earthquakes

Answer»

Ground RuptureGround rupture is another important effect of earthquakes which occurs when the earthquake movement along a fault actually breaks the Earth's surface.Explanation:Ground ShakingGround SHAKING is the most familiar effect of earthquakes. It is a result of the passage of seismic WAVES through the ground, and ranges from quite gentle in small LandslidesLandslides are caused by earthquakes both by direct rupture and by sustained shaking of UNSTABLE slopes. They can easily destroy buildings in their path, or block roads and railroad lines, or take hilltop homes with them as they tumble. They even can dam rivers on occasion, like in the 17 August 1959 Hebgen Lake earthquake (magnitude 7.1) in Montana.TsunamisTsunamis, which are popularly -- and incorrectly -- known as ``tidal waves,'' are a grave hazard to many parts of the world, PARTICULARLY around the Pacific Ocean basin. Tsunamis are a series of water waves caused when the seafloor moves vertically in an earthquake (which is why they are uncommon in California earthquakes -- most CA earthquakes are strike-slip, with little or no vertical motion) and which can travel vast distances in a short PERIOD of time.Mark as brainliest answerfollow me I will follow up with youbyegood night Everyone
