which are the following?
it get weak
The point beneath the earth's surface where an earthquake originates is called the hypocenter.
A Richter scale measures the movement of the earths surface which happens during an earthquake.
an earthquake
crust
The point beneath the Earth's surface where the crust breaks and triggers an earthquake is called the focus or hypocenter. This is the location where the accumulated stress along a fault line is released, resulting in seismic waves that cause the ground to shake. The point directly above the focus on the Earth's surface is known as the epicenter.
what happens when rocks beneath earths surface under goes trees
An earthquake is started when two plates (which lie under the Earths surface) rub together this creates movement which then sometimes pulls/pushes at the earths surface and creates giant cracks in the earths surface... and that is how an earthquake is started.
