What causes earthquake?

Plates causes earthquake. Those plates are known as tectonic plates. There are thousands of plates which move around Earth's crust every second. When 2 tectonic plates come in contact with each other they produce a vibration which is known as earthquake. That vibration sometime creates massive destruction in that area. The earthquake comes in that particular area as Viberation occurs in that area only, and sometimes it occur at near by places too. The earthquake can come in any magnitude from 0.1 to 0.8.
