The focus of an earthquake is the location within the lithosphere where seismic energy is released when slippage first occurs along a fault line. The epicenter is the location on Earth's surface directly above the focus.
The hypocentre or focus of an earthquake is the point within the earth where the fault rupture actually occurs.
The epicentre of an earthquake is the central point on the Earth's surface directly above the focus or hypocentre.
the epicentre changes the direction and valid of the earthquake while the focus on the other changes the focus and movement or love of the earthquake he plates are what causes an earthquake and a volcanic eruption ok if helpful please comment bye thanks
The focus is the area beneath Earth's surface where rock that is under stress breaks, triggering an earthquake. The epicentre/epicenter is the point on the surface directly above the focus.
So basically the focus is underground while the epicenter is on the Earth's surface.
the epicenter is above the focus and the focus is under the epicenter.
The activity under the earthquake is the focus (hypocenter) and is located under the crust. The epicenter is located above ground, directly over the focus.
The focus of an earthquake is where the earthquake actually occurred below the surface, where as the epicentre is the point directly above this on the Earth's surface.
earthquake ,falls
the stage and the objective lens
focus knobs are the things you use to focus stuff on a microscope.
Working distance or WD is the distance between each objective and the specimen, when precise focus of the specimen is obtained.

The difference between the epicentre and the focus of earthquakes is this:The focus of the earthquake is where the actual earthquake occurred and the epicentre is on the ground directly above the focus. The epicentre is used to say where the earthquake was in relation to places near where it occurred.Hope this helped :)

The focus is the point in the earths crust where the earthquake originates and the epicentre is the point in the earths surface directly above the focus.
The focus of an earthquake is the place where an earthquake occurred along the fault underground, while the epicenter is the place directly above it where the seismic waves were felt.The focus is where an earthquake starts and the epicenter is where the earthquake hits the hardest.The focus of the earthquake is where the actual earthquake occurred and the epicenter is on the ground directly above the focus. The epicenter is used to say where the earthquake was in relation to places near where it occurred.
asw2. The epicentre is the underground location of the earthquake, and the focus is the point on the surface directly above the epicentre.
In the Epicentre (middle).
The underground centre of an earthquake is the Hypocentre or focus.
The focus is below ground that is where the earth quake happens. The epicenter is above because that is where it is located
An epicentre ( epicenter) is the point of the earths surface above the hypocentre (hypocenter) or focus of an earthquake
AN EARTHquake first reaches a place that is focus strong earthquakes are in the epicentre but this is not the place from where earthquake originates i.e focus
epicentre :)
