Answer:
magnitude, location
Step-by-step explanation:
Fault rupture or ground raptures are those that visible offset the ground surface when an earthquake occurs at a buried rapture. where there is no displacement of ground levels.
Types of faults are
1. Normal faulting is a simple fault scarp of superficial deposits that give rise to rise to surface graben.
2. Reverse faulting is a more complex surface rapture, which is liable to collapse like a back-thrust development.
3. Strike-slip faulting is associated with dominantly horizontal movement, occur in en-echelon faults
All these impacts the
- size of the earthquake, the rate of all potential earthquakes,
- the distance of the site and the
- complexity of the fault.
