    The document summarizes what an earthquake is and how it occurs. It explains that earthquakes are caused by movements of tectonic plates or volcanic activity underground. When pressure builds between plates along faults or cracks, a sudden release of energy sends seismic waves through the Earth's crust, causing the shaking and damage seen in the picture. Earthquakes can collapse buildings, fell trees, and damage infrastructure like roads and bridges, potentially resulting in injuries or loss of life.

    Earthquake

    In this picture there are some house collapsed, fallen tree and road damaged. Ths is
    a terrible situation. Why did it happen? It happened because of earthquake. So what is the
    earthquake? How did the earthquake happen?
    Earthquake is a shaking of the ground cause by the movement of the earth’s crust.
    There are two types of earthquake. First is tectonic earthquake. Tectonic earthquake is
    cause by the activity of earth’s plates. Second is volcanic earthquake. Volcanic earthquake
    is cause by the vulcanic activity of volcano. Earthquake vibration can be measured with
    seismograph.
    Earthquake occured when the rocks in the earth’s crust are under termendous
    pressure because of the two rubbing slabs. It makes faults or cracks and the the faults or
    cracks collide with each other so it makes a strong vibration the the earthquake occured.
    There are some effects of earthquake. The earthquake makes the building collapsed,
    fallen tree, the road or bridge damaged and may cause injury or loss life. Along with severe
    storm or volcanic activity the earthquake can cause lanslide. An earthquake can creates
    tsunami if it happens in the sea. So, here is the picture the effect of earthquake.
