Answer:

1. Large chunks of Earth called tectonic plates collide with each other.

2. The edges of the plates slide past each other in close contact.

3. The plates create great stresses in rocks near the edges of the plate.

4. The separation of the plates release a great amount of energy.

5. The energy released causes shaking of Earth in that position.

6. The seismic waves created at the hypo-center spread out radially and causes shaking wherever they travel.

7. The intensity of the earthquake reduces with the distance from the epicenter.
