epicenter
The surface of the earth moves violently in an earthquake. This occurs when there is a sudden release of energy in the earths crust. Anything from a volcano to a tectonic plate shift can cause an earthquake.
Within the Earth, the focal point of the energy released in an earthquake is called the hypocentre or focus. This is where an earthquake actually begins. The place on the Earth's surface directly above this point is known as the epicentre.

The point within Earth's interior where the energy release of an earthquake occurs is known as the focus or hypocenter. This is the location where the seismic waves originate and spread outwards, causing the shaking and damage on the Earth's surface. The epicenter, on the other hand, is the point directly above the focus on the Earth's surface.
The point in Earth's interior where the energy of an earthquake is released is called the focus or hypocenter. It is the location within the Earth where seismic waves originate, typically located along a fault line. The energy released at this point travels outward, causing the shaking felt during an earthquake. The point directly above the focus on the Earth's surface is known as the epicenter.

They absorb radiant energy emitted by Earths surface
The point underground where the energy is released (causing the earthquake) is the focus point. This area is the actual origin of the earthquake. It should not be confused with the epicenter, which is the point above ground where the earthquake originates.
