Info about the Japan quake and tsunami?

Question:


I am referring to the recent tsunami and earthquake in Japan -2011

Tsunami:
How long was it?
How tall was it?
How much damage did it cost?
How fast was it moving?
Where else was affected except for Japan?

Earthquake:
Official Magnitude?
Damage?

any other important statistical information is extremely encouraged and very helpful - thanks!

Answer:


well im not really sure how tall it was but it went over a 30ft wall so pretty tall...
it killed over 10,000 people
it shortened our days by something like .8 milliseconds, because it screwed up the Earths north and South poles.
it moved Japan 13 feet towards the United States,
the waves of the Tsunami were up to like 500 mph
if you need any further information, type your question into Google.
theyre saying it was either an 8.9 or a 9.0 on the Earthquake scale, aaand it was the 5th largest in the world.
