A tsunami is a series of waves generated in an ocean or other body of water by a disturbance such as an earthquake, landslide, volcanic eruption, or meteorite impact. So if the impact from the earthquake can also create the tsunami that occurs when a earthquake hits the ocean.

A tsunami is an unusually large sea wave produced by a sea quake or undersea volcanic eruption which vibrates and shakes up the sea which can cause and tsunami. An earthquake can also create an tsunami which the vibration of it can reach to sea level and cause an huge sea wave or an tsunami.

How do earthquakes cause tsunamis?

By:Jeffrey Ou

An earthquake is an series of vibrations induced in the earth's crust by the abrupt rupture and rebound of rocks in which creates the earthquake. Earthquakes are caused from when the rocks break and slide against each other and the plates move and that makes an earthquake. he fast movement of these plates causes the ground below to shake which is what happens during an earthquake.

Other things can cause an tsunami like if a undersea volcano erupts it can create enough force to uplift the water column and generate a tsunami. The vibration from the undersea volcano can generate a lot of force so it can vibrate so powerful it can cause an tsunami. One more thing that can cause and tsunami is undersea landslides, which can be caused by large earthquakes, can also cause tsunami waves to form as water attempts to find a stable position.
