Hottest layer of the earth.

Caused by sudden movement in tectonic/crustal plates in the solid layer of the Earth

It is the amount of energy released by an earthquake

The seismic waves caused by earthquake (measuring more than 7 on Richter scale) travelling through seawater generate high sea waves and cause great loss of life and property.

Ground failure or loss of strength that causes otherwise solid soil to behave temporarily as a liquid due to ground shaking

Strong seismic waves can damage dams thereby causing severe flash floods. This can also happen as a result of blocking of water flow of rivers due to rocks and debris produced by severe tremors in the hill slopes facing the river valleys.

Severe injuries from collapsed buildings and infrastructure, falling debris, suffocation, and drowning due to tsunami and flash floods during an earthquake may cause death among people.

The strong vibrations caused by severe earthquakes strongly shake the buildings and thus causing severe fires in houses, mines, and factories because of over turning of cooking gas, breaking of gas pipes,contact of live electric wires, churning of blast furnaces,displacement of other fire related and electric appliances.

The measure of how strong an earthquake is felt  in a specific place/physical damage

The gas component of Earth
