Natural Disasters and Their Impacts

A magnitude 5.1 earthquake leads to the collapse of the North Face of a mountain, triggering the largest landslide in recorded history. Subsequently, pressure from deep within a volcano causes the mountainside to rupture, toppling forests and scorching everything in its path.

What natural event caused the North Face of the mountain to collapse?

• A volcanic eruption

• A magnitude 5.1 earthquake

• A massive flood

• A severe thunderstorm
