What is the Earthquake.......?

 

        Our planet Earth is not as solid as it appears. The ground we’re standing on is actually supported by liquefied rock, and this liquefied rock is constantly swirling around the Earth’s superheated cor. The solid crust we stand on forms a relatively thin skin, covering many separate plates of rock. These come into constant contact with each other but usually their movements are too slight for humans to feel.

             Over time’ however, all that bumping and grinding causes pressure to build up along the stress points where different plates meet. When it becomes too much, the Earth releases it all in an earthquake – a kind of underground landside that sends energy waves travelling through solid land.

 

 

The earth surface is known as the crust and it consists of several plates which are made of rocks. Cover is situated below the earth crust and the temperature is about 5000°C. Because of that iron, nical, chromium, and other elements are in liquid from just like a pool. The plates usually float on this lava and move into various directions. When such two plates touch against each other then it is known as an earthquake.

 

This clash often occurs and creates earthquakes. As a result countries like Mexico, Chilly, Iran, China, Afghanistan faces earthquake.

Do You know….?

 

The Chinese were successful in saving about a million lives by evacuating them from the town of Hawan China after an earthquake which took place in February 1975. A prior knowledge of the earthquake made it evacuate all the people, 2-3 hours before it happened. Only there people were killed by this earthquake.
