Why do earthquakes occur?
There are 7 plates inside the Earth which are continuously rotating. The place where these plates collide is called the fault line zone. The corners of the plates bend due to repeated collisions. When the pressure becomes too high the plates begin to break. As they break, the energy inside finds its way out. After this disturbance an earthquake occurs.
Which earthquake is dangerous?
The maximum intensity of the earthquake has not yet been determined. However, an earthquake with a magnitude of 7.0 or more on the Richter scale is considered more dangerous than normal. Earthquakes measuring 2 or less on this scale are called microquakes which are mostly not felt. Earthquake of 4.5 magnitude can damage houses
