Know How A Destructive Earthquake Occurs?
The most important and important reason for the occurrence of earthquakes is the collision of major plates located deep inside the earth with each other. There are about seven main plates inside the Earth which keep rotating continuously. As soon as there is a collision of any plate from any corner during the continuous rotation of these seven plates, a default zone is formed there and an additional pressure starts building up due to bending at the corners of the colliding surfaces, due to which The colliding plates start breaking among themselves. Due to the breaking of these plates, the energy collected inside makes way to come out, and the earth starts shaking due to vibration and this causes earthquake.
