Write TRUE if the statement is correct and FALSE if the statement is

wrong.
_____________ 31. Faults are fractures where a block of rock moves with
respect to another, caused by forces which may be vertical or inclined at an
angle.
_____________ 32. Dip-slip faults involves vertical movement of blocks of
rocks. When the hanging wall moves down relative to the foot wall, the fault is
described as a normal fault.
_____________ 33. the point beneath the earth’s surface where the rocks
break is reffered to as the focus or hypocenter of the earthquake.
_____________ 34. directly above the focus, on the earth’s surface, is the
epicenter of the earthquake.
_____________ 35. Body waves refer to the vibrations that travel through the
interior of the earth.
_____________ 36. Love waves refer to vibration that travel at the surface of
the earth.
______________37. The layer between the crust and the uppermost part of the
mantle together form the solid rocky sphere called atmosphere.
______________ 38. It is the block below the faults planed is referred to as the
hanging wall
______________ 39. Seismic waves are vibration of the earth caused by the
sudden release of energy stored in rocks that have been deformed by forces
that originate from moving tectonic plates.
______________ 40. Love waves shake the ground side to side.
