Question 1

What phase describes the accumulation of elastic strain in rocks?

  • Stick Phase
  • Slip Phase
  • Creeping Phase

💡 Hint: Remember the analogy of energy building up before being released.

Question 2

True or False: Locked faults release energy gradually without significant earthquakes.

  • True
  • False

💡 Hint: Focus on what happens during a lock versus creep scenario.

Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

A locked fault accumulates 500 units of strain before slipping. Calculate the energy released during the subsequent earthquake if 1 unit of strain equates to 2 units of energy.

💡 Hint: Use the relation between strain and energy for your calculations.

Question 2

If a creeping fault is experiencing continuous movement releasing energy at a rate of 10 units per year, how much energy will be released over 15 years?

💡 Hint: Consider this as a simple multiplication of the energy release rate.
