Answer 1

For all my friends at penn foster!

Step-by-step explanation:

A good answer should contain the following:

seismogenic

faults

stress

Lithostatic pressure

When seismic waves are generated in a fault, the timespan is directly related to how long it took all of the stress to leave that area of the earth’s crust.

GOOD LUCK!!
