Pampanga is situated on soft sediment and soils deposited by surface water or alluvial soil which weakens the foundation of the structures.
More than 1,230 houses in Bataan and Pampanga were reported to be partially or totally damaged due to the earthquake.
Learn the evacuation procedures in your place.
Make a family evacuation plan.
Over 900 families in Central Luzon, specifically in the provinces of Pampanga and Zambales are temporarily staying in evacuation centers.
The highest intensity scale of an earthquake is XI.
Contact local authorities for some assistance.
The point nearest to the focus of an earthquake is not specified in the illustration.
The earthquake resulted in a damage of 1230 houses and reached a death toll of 18, with 282 injured and 7 still missing.
The NDRRMC situational report showed that aside from the fatalities, 282 were injured and seven are still missing.
An earthquake that measures 9.0 on the intensity scale would cause hanging objects to swing slightly.
The death toll in Central Luzon due to the magnitude 6.1 earthquake that struck Castillejos, Zambales has reached 18, according to the National Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Council (NDRRMC) on Thursday.
Ground motion is not considered an effect when movement of an active fault happens.
Zambales has an active fault because places with active faults are likely to have an earthquake and are a geologic hazard.
A seismograph is a device used to measure ground motion during an earthquake.
The magnitude of an earthquake that can cause serious damage in areas across several hundred miles is 8.0 – 8.9.
The Richter scale is an instrument that determines the amount of damage caused by earthquakes.
The intensity of an earthquake is measured by a seismograph.
Scientists use different ways to find out if a fault is active, one of which is not creating a fault model.
The Richter scale relies on human observation in measuring earthquakes.
The first motion of an earthquake occurs at a point along a fault.
The focus of an earthquake is located in the illustration.
The intensity of an earthquake is not described as weak.
The epicenter of an earthquake is located underground where the earthquake begins.
The management team also includes Patalinghug.
This Self-Learning Module (SLM) is prepared so that learners can continue their studies and learn while at home.
Activities, questions, directions, exercises, and discussions are carefully stated for learners to understand each lesson.
An active fault is expected to generate earthquakes.
Epicenter is located in the illustration at Point A.
A 5.0 – 5.9 magnitude in a Richter scale is described as major.
The epicenter of an earthquake is not the same as its focus.
The focus of an earthquake describes the direction of earthquake wave movement while the epicenter tells where the earthquake originated.
