Earthquake➫ Any sudden shaking of the ground caused by the passage of seismic waves through Earth's rocks.
♦ Earthquakes can be extremely violent or so slight that they only register on instruments.
♦ The largest fault surfaces on Earth are formed due to boundaries between moving plates.
♦ They are caused by sudden movements of the Earth's tectonic plates.
♦ The sudden release of tension in the tectonic plates sends waves of energy that travel through the Earth.
➧ Causes of Earthquake:-
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-==-=-=
❱ Tectonic Movement
❱ Volcanic Eruption
❱ Geological Fault
❱ Minor Cause
❱ Man Made
➧ Prevention of Earthquake:-
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-==-=-=
❱ Put latches on cabinet doors and file cabinets.
❱ Fasten your water heater and other appliances.
❱ Store hazardous materials in a sturdy place.
❱ Keep fire extinguishers.
➧ Precautions of Earthquake:-
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-==-=-=
❱ Check yourself and others for injuries.
❱ Check water, gas, and electric lines for damage.
❱ Turn on the radio.
❱ Stay out of damaged buildings.
❱ Be careful around broken glass and debris.

Seismic waves are produced when some form of energy stored in Earth's crust is suddenly released, usually when masses of rock straining against one another suddenly fracture and “slip.” Earthquakes occur most often along geologic faults, narrow zones where rock masses move in relation to one another.
