Answer 2

Answer:

The rocks that make up the crust of the Earth are full of fractures. On some of these fractures – known as faults – rocks slip past each other as the crust rearranges itself in the process known as plate tectonics. But this slipping doesn’t happen easily – rocks are stiff, rough, and under a lot of pressure from rocks around and above them. Because of this, rocks can pull at or push on each other on either side of a fault for long periods of time without moving much at all, which builds up a lot of stress in the rocks. When rocks do finally slip past each other, they move suddenly, releasing the built up stress all at once and sending shockwaves through the surrounding rocks. The shaking that results is what we call an earthquake.
