The earthquakes after a major earthquake in the same area are called aftershocks.
It's called an aftershock
Earth's crust shift into each other causing an earthquake
No not quite aftershocks can even occur for a couple of days after the main earthquake.
No, they can't tell that it is a foreshock until a larger earthquake happens. (The largest main earthquake is called the mainshock)
Aftershocks are smaller earthquakes that occur after a larger event (the mainshock) in the same area. If an even larger earthquake occurs, then the original mainshock becomes a foreshock and the bigger event becomes the mainshock.
These are known as aftershocks.
An intraplate earthquake is an earthquake that occurs in the interior of a tectonic plate. However, an interplate earthquake is one that occurs at a plate boundary.
earthquake and related tsunami.
Foreshock is what you call one of the little earthquakes that come before the big earthquake or main shock. The main shock may be followed by a little earthquake that's called the aftershock.
There are a number of features of an earthquake. The main features include vibration of the earth surface, possible destruction of buildings and property, movement of tectonics under the surface of the earth and so much more.
noise and frequency are made a vibration
The climax of "Earthquake Terror" by Peg Kehret occurs when the main characters are trapped on an island during a severe earthquake. As they work to survive and make their way to safety, tension and danger are at their peak, leading to a suspenseful and dramatic conclusion.
An earthquake epicenter is always located on the ground right about the focus. The focus occurs where one piece of land slides against another. The sliding can be up and down or sideways or a combination of up-down and sideways. There can also be surface indications. The main action occurs underground.
A small earthquake that follows the main earthquake.

It's a smaller (or sometimes larger) earthquake after the main earthquake
By definitiona an aftershock is always smaller than the larger earthquake that preceeded it. If an earthquake then occurs that is of larger magnitude and related to the prior seismic activity it is redesignated as the mainshock and all pre-recording quakes are re-designated as foreshocks.
An earthquake is a vibration of the Earth produced by a rapid release of energy . The main features include the focus, the location within the Earth where the earthquake rupture starts, and the epicenter, the point on the Earth's surface directly above the focus. Also the fault which is the fracture in the earth. And seismic waves which are waves of energy created when plates suddenly move. These cause the ground to shake.
