EARTHQUAKE:-

Slide 5: 

Earthquake is a violent tremor in the Earth’s crust sending out a series of shock waves in all directions from its place of origin or epicenter. Earthquakes constitute one of the worst natural hazards which often turn into disaster causing widespread destruction and loss to human life.

Slide 6: 

CAUSES OF EARTHQUAKE Earthquakes are caused by sudden release of energy in rocks. Plates in the form of rocks are moving very slowly and earthquake occur when moving plates grind and scrape against each other. The point at which the earthquake originates is the focus and the point on the earth surface ; directly above this is epicenter.
