Ans. Earthquakes are usually caused when rock underground suddenly breaks along a fault. This sudden release of energy causes the seismic waves that make the ground shake. When two blocks of rock or two plates are rubbing against each other, they stick a little.

The point where an earthquake originates is called seismic focus. It is just above the earth's epicenter on the earth's surface. The focus is also known as hypocenter of an earthquake and here at this point ground ruptures.
