Question:
effects
Answer:
The height of the tide exceed 75 feet (at Ofunato city), and the water reached to 130 feet altitude (at Miyako City.) It was far greater than any imagination. They are not prepared for that big tsumani. About 16,000 confirmed death and another 5,000 people are still missing. Nuclear power plants lost its all electricity and control, it's still out of control. Many small and medium-sized manufacturing factories got serious damages, and it impacted even big companies like Toyota, which locate in non-damaged area, to halt their production for several months. The tsunami was caused by the earthquake, but tsunami caused far more damage than tsunami. Buildings and facilities are mostry prepared for big earthqueke but not ready for that big tsunami.
