Many of us might have exponenced an earthquake in our lives. An the
the shaking and movement of the ground when energy is released in the form of waves
These waves are called seismic waves. They seem to be very similar to w
which can be seen moving through water. Seismic waves, however, move through the
ground. Most earthquakes are caused by the movement of the large sections of the
earth's crust, called tectonic plates. The place where two plates meet is called a lot
fault is a large crack in the ground. In addition to that, when the two plates move in
ditierent directions, they build up high energy at the fault line. When enough energy
builds up at the fault line, the stress on the fault becomes too high and it ruptures. This
act releases the energy, and the ground starts to tremble. Earthquakes can also be
caused by other natural events, such as landslides and volcanic eruptions The to
movement of an earthquake called the main shock, is often followed by smaller
earthquakes called aftershocks. These aftershocks occur because the plates settle into
their new position. Aftershocks may continue for days after the main shock is over
