What is located deep underground an earthquake?
Epicenter.
What are the effects of deep focus earthquakes?
Very little, as the earthquake occurs deep underground, hence the deep focus.
What is the point deep inside the earth where energy is released causing an earthquake?
the eye of the hurricane
What is the energy of the earthquake magnitude?
The energy of an earthquake magnitude can be measured using the moment magnitude scale. The energy released by an earthquake is directly proportional to the magnitude of the earthquake. Each unit increase in magnitude represents a 32-fold increase in energy release. So, the energy of an earthquake magnitude can vary significantly depending on the specific magnitude.
Which causes more damage a shallow focus or deep focus?
Typically, a shallow focus earthquake will cause more damage than a deep focus earthquake. Shallow focus implies the source of the earthquake is near to the surface, so the waves will lose lesser energy than the deep focus earthquake waves while travelling through the Earth. But it depends on other factors too such as local stratigraphy, and subsurface conditions.
What is located deep underground an earthquake?
Epicenter.
Is an earthquake's epicenter located deep underground?
False, the focus is located deep underground. The epicenter is at ground level
What are the effects of deep focus earthquakes?
Very little, as the earthquake occurs deep underground, hence the deep focus.
An earthquake's focus is located deep underground?
yeah, sure whatever
What is the location deep underground where the first motion of an earthquake occurs?
Epicenter!!
What type of renewal energy is deep underground?
Geothermal energy, using the heat from under the ground.

Does the epicenter create the first motion of earthquake?
The epicenter, a point on the earth's surface directly over the focus, is where the first motion of an earthquake will be felt.The first motion of an earthquake is created at the focus, the point deep underground where the first break in the fault line occurs.
What is the maximum depth a deep focus earthquake can occur to?
what is the maximum depth of a deep-focus earthquake
