Question

what might the amount of energy released by two plates that get unstuck tell you about how strong an earthquake will be?
the more energy that is released by the plates, the stronger the earthquake will be.
the more energy that is released by the plates, the weaker the earthquake will be.
the less energy that is released by the plates, the longer the earthquake will last.

Explanation:

Earthquakes occur when tectonic plates that have been stuck suddenly move. The energy released during this movement determines the earthquake's strength. More energy release means a stronger earthquake.

Answer:

A. The more energy that is released by the plates, the stronger the earthquake will be.
