EXPLAIN:
What causes Earthquake?
An earthquake occurs because of geologic forces inside the Earth.
These inner forces build up slowly and eventually become so strong
that may cause underground rocks to break.
When this happens, tremendous energy is released causing the
ground to move and shake. These waves of energy travel through the
 Page |4
Q2W4
Earth are called seismic waves.
Seismic waves behave in different ways, depending on what they
encounter along the way.
What are Seismic Waves?
Seismic waves are the waves of energy that travel either along or
near the Earth’s surface. This energy that travels through the Earth is
recorded by seismographs.
Types of Earthquake Waves
The two main types of earthquake waves are body waves and surface
waves.
Body Waves
The body waves are seismic waves that travel through the interior of
the Earth. These waves are of higher frequency than surface waves.
The two types of body waves are primary and secondary waves.

Primary Waves
The first type of body waves are the P waves or primary waves.
These are the fastest kind of seismic waves, and consequently, the
first to arrive at a seismic station and recorded in the seismograph.
The P waves can move through solid rocks and fluids, like water or
the liquid layers of the Earth. They push and pull the rocks as they
move through just like the sound waves that push and pull the air.

Secondary Waves
The second type of body waves are the S waves or secondary waves.
These are waves that arrive second, after P waves are being detected
in the seismic station and recorded in the seismograph. S waves are
slower than P waves and can only move through solid rocks, not
through any liquid medium. This concludes that the Earth’s outer
core is liquid due to this property of the S wave. These waves move
rock particles up and down, or side-to-side perpendicular to the
direction that the waves are traveling in. S waves are also known as
transverse or shear waves, which create the shaking of the ground
back and forth perpendicular to the direction the waves are moving. S
waves have a velocity of 3 to 4 km/s.

Q2W4

EXPLAIN:
Being in the tropics, the Philippines is visited by typhoons almost
every year. These typhoons are also referred to as tropical cyclones.
Some of these typhoons leave minimal damages but a number have
already been listed in history as devastating. Not a single part of our
country is exempted from these forces of nature.
A lot of individuals mostly use the word “typhoon,” and are
seemingly unaware of the term “tropical cyclone.” In this module,
you will understand that a typhoon is just one category of a tropical
cyclone.
According to Philippine Atmospheric Geophysical and Astronomical
Services Administration (PAGASA), there were 13 tropical cyclones
that entered the Philippine Area of Responsibility (PAR) in 2019.
Do you know that the Philippines is prone to tropical cyclones? It is
because of its geographical location which generally produce heavy
rains, flooding of large areas, strong winds which result in heavy
casualties to human life, and destructions to crops and properties.
That is why, it is very important to have sufficient knowledge on
tropical cyclones for our benefit. The picture below shows how
typhoon can greatly affect our lives.

The term “typhoon” is common in the northwestern part of the

Pacific. Within the northeastern part of the Pacific Ocean and also in
the northern part of the Atlantic Ocean, the equivalent term of
typhoon is “hurricane.” In the Philippines, we call all categories of
tropical cyclone as “bagyo,” may it be a tropical depression, tropical
storm, severe tropical storm, typhoon or super typhoon. When a
tropical cyclone enters the PAR, the PAGASA will announce Public
Storm Warning Signals (PSWS). The lifting or assigning of a PSWS
in a certain place usually happens before the corresponding
atmospheric conditions exist over the locality. This is because the
aim of the signal is to warn the people of the approaching danger that
the tropical cyclone may bring. It is important to remember that the
 Page |8
Q2W4
appropriate interval of the range of the wind speeds for every signal
is only valid when PAGASA puts to effect the signal number for the
first time.

ELABORATE:
Track My Trail
Directions: Shown below are the paths of 3 tropical cyclones that
entered PAR. Tropical Storm Jolina in August 2017, Typhoon
Ompong in September 2018, and Tropical Storm Jenny in August
2019 respectively. The tracks were plotted by PAGASA.

will be graded according to
