How Does Earthquake Happen?
Earthquake is one of the
most destroying natural disasters. Unluckily it often happens in
several regions. Recently a horrible earthquake has shaken West
Sumatra. It has brought great damages. Why did it occur? Do you know
how an earthquake happens?
Earthquakes are usually
caused when rock underground suddenly breaks along a fault. This
sudden release of energy causes the seismic waves. It make the ground
shake. When two two plates of rock are rubbing against each other,
they stick a little. They don't just slide smoothly. The rocks are
still pushing against each other, but not moving.
After a while, the rock
plates break because of all the pressure that's built up. When the
rocks break, the earthquake occurs.
