its where it started from so there is going to be more pressure there
The energy of the seismic waves that reach the surface is greatest at the epicenter. The most violent shaking during an earthquake however may occur kilometers away from the epicenter. The types of rock and soil around the epicenter determine where and how much the ground shakes.
What earthquakes feel like will depend on how large the earthquake is. Small earthquakes might just feel like a large vehicle is driving by. Bigger earthquakes feel like floor or ground you are standing on is trembling and shaking.
Ground shaking is caused by an earthquake which is two tectonic plates that rub against eachother or overlap The magnitude of most earthquakes is measured on a ricture scale the magnitude is calculated by the ampline.
the spot above the centre of the earthquake is called the epicentre.
Yes. Tornadoes and earthquakes are two completely different things. A tornado is a violently rotating column of air extending from the base of a thunderstorm to the ground. It causes damage with its powerful winds and debris carried by those winds. An earthquake is a shaking of the earth's crust. They cause damage by shaping, warping, liquefying, and fracturing the ground beneath buildings.

Local effects of earthquakes include ground shaking and rupture, fires, and damage.

You don't. An earthquake is the shaking of the ground. It does not produce wind.

Earthquakes shake the ground from underneath. This shaking can set off a reaction from within the volcano and activate it.
Earthquakes are as old as time. Earthquakes are the continental plates colliding and failing to keep straight, pushing one plate over the other and shaking the ground.
Earthquakes are movements or shaking of the ground that happened when blocks of rock move suddenly and release energy.
Most surface waves are caused by wind systems. Earthquakes cause tsunamis.
