Earthquake Lab Worksheet Activity 1 Data Table 1 Number of Washers Distance Stretched (inches) Observations 8 2.5 The upper plate moved about 1.5 inches, causing the top four washers to be pushed backward but not fall off completely. 8 1.5 There was a very slight shift in the plate, but none of the washers moved. 8 2.5 The top plate moved approximately 1 inch, causing the top four washers to be pushed backward, but they did not fall off. 8 1.4 The top plate shifted approximately 1.25 inches, and as a result, the top four wash- ers were pushed backward but did not fall off. 0 0.5 The top plate moved approximately a quar- ter of an inch. 0 1/8 There was a very small movement of the plate. 0 0.5 There was an extremely subtle shift in the position of the plate. 0 0.7 There was an almost imperceptible shift in the position of the plate. 16 5 1/4 The top plate shifted approximately 3.5 to 4 inches. Four washers were moved for- ward, eleven were pushed backward, and two remained in their original position. 16 4 1/4 The top plate shifted approximately 1 inch, but the washers did not fall. 16 4 3/4 The top plate shifted approximately 2 inches, causing the top 11 washers to shift backward, but they did not fall. Five wash- ers remained in their original position.
16 5 3/4 The top plate shifted approximately 2 3/4 inches, leading to the backward movement of the top 7 washers, which did not fall. Nine washers remained in their original po- sition. Activity 2 SKIP Activity 3 Part A
