The point inside Earth where movement from inside an earthquake first occurs is called the focus or hypocenter. This is the location where the seismic energy is released, generating seismic waves that travel to the surface and cause shaking.
The place inside Earth where an earthquake starts is called the "focus" or hypocenter. This is the point beneath the Earth's surface where the seismic energy is released, generating seismic waves that cause the ground to shake.
The location inside the Earth where an earthquake begins is called the focus. The point at the Earth's surface directly above the focus is called the epicenter. The strongest shaking happens at the epicenter.
Consider earth as a ball with molten magma inside. The solid part or earth crust is very thin. Small motion of these molten magma could easily break through the ground that is volcano. Human is very small compare to earth, only small shake from this rupture or movement on earth is largely effect to us. The shake due to rupture of volcano or movement of magma inside earth is to us the Earthquake.
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.
the point inside the earth where the first movement of an earthquake occurs and energy is released is called the epicenter.
The point inside Earth where movement from inside an earthquake first occurs is called the focus or hypocenter. This is the location where the seismic energy is released, generating seismic waves that travel to the surface and cause shaking.
The point inside the Earth where energy is released causing an earthquake is called the focus or hypocenter. This is where the seismic waves originate and spread outwards, causing the ground to shake.

It's called the Focus, the epicenter is on the surface.
The location inside the Earth where an earthquake begins is called the focus. The point at the Earth's surface directly above the focus is called the epicenter. The strongest shaking happens at the epicenter.
Earths energy is released when there is too much heat inside of Earth and volcano's erupt.

The energy inside matter is called nuclear energy, which is stored in the nucleus of atoms. This energy can be released through processes such as nuclear fission or fusion.
Nuclear energy is the term for energy that comes from inside the nucleus of an atom. This energy can be released through processes such as nuclear fission or nuclear fusion.
