Answer:

An earthquake is a shock wave that radiates to the Earth's surface from underground. Causing a range of effects from unnoticeable, mild tremors to violent, prolonged shaking, an earthquake is a natural phenomenon that occurs frequently only in certain areas of the world. The place where an earthquake begins underground is called the hypocenter, and the area on the Earth's surface directly above the hypocenter is called the epicenter and receives the most powerful shock waves.

Be prepared and protect yourself from an earthquake when you hear an earthquake warning announcement or feel a quake.

・Stay under a large table until a quake is gone. Keep yourself safe from falling or moving objects during a quake.

【High-rise Building with 10 or More Floors】

・Upper floors may be shaken for several minutes.

・Large, slow shakes may let the furniture fall down or move across the room.

Explanation:

Hope it helps you
