Perhaps because of the earthquake slight vibration let balance change, by qpstore answered
The magnitude, Richter scale, and seismograph.
There are three: Mercalli, for intensity ergo the damages it produce and how it fells; Richter, to know the energy that is released in the epicenter; Moment Magnitude Scale, is a modern version of the Richter scale. I also think there is other version of the mercalli scale, with obviously other name, but I am not totally sure.
There are three different types of earthquake.TectonicvolcanicMan maidThere are 3 kinds of earthquakes. One where the plates push together, another where the plates slide against each other, and one where the plates pull apart.

Mercalli, Richter, and The Moment Scales
The scale we use for temperature is "degrees" (°). There are three temperature scales that are used today. The Kelvin (K) scale is used by scientists and for astronomical temperatures. The Celsius scale (°C) is used in most of the world to measure air temperatures. In the United States, the Fahrenheit scale(°F) is used to measure temperatures at or near the surface.
I think there are three types of earthquakes one is the earths crust
The types of thermonmeter scales are: -- Fahrenheit -- Kelvin -- Celsius -- Rankin
three
Earthquakes occur at all three types of plate boundary.
Any and all plate motion causes earthquakes.
