Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

Consider a region with two active tectonic plates colliding at a convergent boundary. Analyze the potential types of earthquakes that could occur and how they would impact the local geological structures.

💡 Hint: Think about mountain-building activities and deep trench formations.

Question 2

Using recent seismic data from a specific fault line, propose a hypothesis about future earthquake potential and describe how this could influence urban planning.

💡 Hint: Focus on historical precedents and patterns you observe in the data.
