Learn how an earthquake occurs?
There are a total of seven plates inside the earth and these plates keep moving. Where plates collide with each other are called fault zones. When plates collide, energy tries to escape. The movement caused by this becomes an earthquake. The closer the epicenter of an earthquake is to the surface, the greater the devastation. Although its area decreases.
