The plane which is defined by the head-to-foot and anterior-to-posterior directions in the human body. A stack of images acquired in the sagittal plane separates images by their left-to-right locations. The mid-line sagittal plane bisects the left and right half of the human body.
Under heavy braking, the rear tires lock up and the axle begins to bounce; the amplitude of the bounce becomes so severe that the tires finally develop enough traction (when slamming hard against the pavement) to rip the whole axle assembly free of the vehicle.
That sudden breaking of the foam rubber is the earthquake. That's just what happens along a strike-slip fault. Earthquake-like seismic waves can also be caused by explosions underground. These explosions may be set off to break rock while making tunnels for roads, railroads, subways, or mines. These explosions, however, don't cause very strong seismic waves.
