Please tell me something about the water volcanoes and Bhuj earthquake. The time starts now. I will be judging the first two answers and mark one as brainliest and other as thanks. So your time starts now.....Go brainly students go. Please explain according to class 7. Gooo

Answer:
The earthquake was caused at the convergent plate boundary between the Indian plate and the Eurasian plate boundary. ... In addition the Gujarat earthquake is an excellent example of liquefaction, causing buildings to 'sink' into the ground which gains a consistency of a liquid due to the frequency of the earthquake.
Some, but not all, earthquakes are related to volcanoes. For example, most earthquakes are along the edges of tectonic plates. ... Most earthquakes directly beneath a volcano are caused by the movement of magma. The magma exerts pressure on the rocks until it cracks the rock.
Hope it helps you.

The 2001 Gujarat earthquake, also known as
the Bhuj earthquake, occurred on 26 January, India's 52nd Republic Day, at 08:46 am IST. The epicentre was about 9 km south-southwest of the village of Chobari in Bhachau Taluka of Kutch District of Gujarat, India.[5][6]

Max. intensity: X (Extreme)
Given a thick water body, the rate at which magma rises through the water becomes crucial. Slowly rising magma will simply evaporate the water and emerge on the surface as a lava flow or even eventually form a lava lake. Magma that rises rapidly does so because it is being powered by expanding gas bubbles within it.
Submarine volcanoes are underwater vents or fissures in the Earth's surface from which magma can erupt. Many submarine volcanoes are located near areas of tectonic plate formation, known as mid-ocean ridges.
