Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

Analyze how a city built on a reverse fault might prepare differently for an earthquake than one on a strike-slip fault.

💡 Hint: Consider the types of stresses each fault type produces.

Question 2

If geological studies show that a major fault line has not produced a significant quake in decades, what implications does this have for cities nearby?

💡 Hint: Remember the concept of seismic gaps and strain accumulation.
