At high altitudes such as mountains is where rocks are most likely to break. This is due to weathering from the wind.
Geothermal power is an energy resource derived from hot rocks.
geothermal energy
the answer is stress
well technically rocks come from underground and those are malten rocks so to burn it first you eat the rock then you tell if its good or not then you put poison on it then you crunch on it and then you try really hard with your teeth to break it then you remove it from your mouth and step on it then you ea it again

Earthquakes happen when under the ground rocks break at a fault. The rocks then break it release of energy which causes semi waves.
valence point
When they have to much stress put on them.

after two minutes
When rocks break and tilt or slide down the break and move, energy is released in the form of seismic waves. Sometimes we feel this release as an earthquake. It is basically an earthquake, but it can also cause a tidal wave or even a tsunami.
Yes, weathering weakens rocks, sometimes to the point where they break into smaller pieces.
Focus
The force that cause Earthquakes as rocks to move and break are called plate tectonics
The force that causes rocks to break as plates rub past each other is called shear stress. This stress leads to the formation of faults and the subsequent release of energy in the form of earthquakes.
the rocks are deformed they break relasing the stored energy
