Hello Aspirant,

To secure a job as a seismologist you must posses a 10+2 education with science stream that is physics, chemistry and mathematics followed by undergraduate and post graduate degrees in seismology. The main aspect of your job as a seismologist / earth Scientist is to locate the source, magnitude and nature of earthquake. You might also be required to study the after effects of the earthquake such as tsunamis and landslides. You may also be responsible of monitoring active volcanoes for tremors, cracks and subsequent eruption. However many work as reaserch assistants and professors as well. Hope this helps and Good luck.

Hi there,

So The distance between moon and earth is 3,84,400 km which is about 238,855 miles. The distance between earth and moon is measured by two ways : lunar eclipse and parallax.

It takes about 3 days for a spacecraft to reach the Moon.

Hope this helps!!

Hello candidate,

The main difference between an earth wire and a neutral wire lies in the main functioning of both the wires- An earth wire acts basically as a conductor that provides a low powered -impedance path to the earth and prevents hazardous voltages from appearing on equipment, where as a Neutral acts as a circuit conductor that normally completes the circuit back to the source.

Hope this information was helpful!!
