Answer 2

Point A, where slip initiated during the earthquake, is called the Hypocenter.

• It is a point inside the Earth, where the seismic waves begin. It is also called Focus.
• The point at which these waves first strike the Earth's crust is called the Epicenter.
• These slips occur due to the movement and striking of the tectonic plates.
• The strain when released at this point creates fault and leads to an Earthquake.
