True False Question 6 (1 point) 2004 Tsunamis over Thailand, Sri Lank, Indonesia were triggered by underwater mega-thrust earthquake. True False Question 7 (1 point) Water gets deep into the earth and powers the Ring of Fire volcanos. True False Question 8 (1 point) Ring of Fire is the name referred to the boundary of active seismic and volcanic activities around the plate North American Pacific Atlantic Indian

Answer 1

5. Ring of fire generally happens in the place where there is a more chance of crash between two plates and when they try to interchange their position, the more movement of the Tectonic plates occurs and it results in a heavy disaster on earth which is named as the Earthquake, and basically, due to the high width around the pacific ocean it converted into the ring of fire and in maximum cases, the Earthquake happens due to the ring of fire.

Therefore, we can say that, it is true that more than 90 percent of the earthquake happened around the ring of fire.

6. In 2004, the natural disaster is suddenly taking place on the earth due to the heavy attack of two plates which are Indian and Burma plates and located near the Pacific ocean, and crashes of both plates are responsible for this worst disaster in the history ever because not only the earthquake took the position on the earth beside this Tsunami also play a very harsh role to destroy the locations which are like Thailand, Srilanka, Indonesia, and many more regions, and due to the heavy loss with two disasters in the same timing and in the same year it is termed as Mega-thrust earthquake.

so, yes it is true that the 2004 Tsunami over Thailand, Srilanka, Indonesia were triggered by an underwater mega-thrust earthquake.

7. When the plate is located near the ocean and when it crashes with another plate then the water from that area would automatically start to go in the downward direction inside the earth but when the position of plates started to get change and when the collision occurs due to the presence and help of the deep water, the volcanoes become on active mode and it is converted into the ring of fire, and it happens due to the Tectonic plate of the Pacific ocean.

So, yes it is true that the water gets deep into the earth and power the ring of volcanoes.

8. The Ring of Fire has some limited area around the pacific plate, and that area doesn't contain the North America because of its location and it is a country not the ocean.

Pacific Ocean is totally surrounded by water and due to its width, the more volcanoes and Ring of Fire, the collision of plates and changes in the position of plates occurs which is around the pacific plate.

Atlantic ocean is located near North America but the reason behind the volcano is not generally happening here is because of the low volume and less width of water the Ring of Fire, Volcano doesn't take place.

Indian Ocean has also the low volume of water with less width are and due to this the volcano and the Ring of Fire don't occur.

Therefore, Ring of Fire is the name referred to the boundary of active seismic and volcanic activities around the Pacific plate.
