Focus
What is the earths surface that is directly above the origin of an earthquake?
the plates under the ground banging together
What is the point beneath earths surface where rock breaks under stress and triggers an earthquake is called the?
The point beneath the earth's surface where an earthquake originates is called the hypocenter.
What is the origin if an earthquake under the surface of earth?
The origin of an earthquake under the Earth's surface is typically the result of stress accumulation along geological faults, where tectonic plates interact. When the stress exceeds the strength of the rocks, it causes a sudden release of energy in the form of seismic waves, resulting in an earthquake. This process is often associated with tectonic activity, such as subduction, rifting, or transform boundaries. The point within the Earth where this rupture occurs is known as the focus or hypocenter of the earthquake.
Where rock breaks under stress is called?
the poin beneath earth's surface where rock breaks under stress and triggers an earthquake is called the
Earthquake's center usually center aruond a single point under earth's surface called a what?
Epicenter
What is the spot on the surface directly above where the earthquake occurs?
The spot on the surface directly above where the earthquake occurs is called the epicenter. It is usually the point on the Earth's surface closest to where the seismic waves originate deep within the Earth.
Where is an earthquake's focus located?
An earthquake's Focus is located directly under the Epicenter of an earthquake. The Epicenterof an earthquake is located on the surface of the earthquake.
What is a focus?
The origin of an earthquake underground is the focus, which is right under the epicenter which is the place above ground where an earthquake is felt.
