FOCUS AND EPICENTER

FOCUS EPICENTER
❑Also known as Hypocenter or ❑The point at the Earth's surface
Focal point . directly above the focus.
❑The point where shaking be
❑The weak point in the tectonic greater in an earthquake.
plate where earthquake
originate.
❑The point where the release of
energy happens in the form of
seismic waves.
MAGNITUDE AND INTENSITY

MAGNITUDE INTENSITY
Measures the energy Measures the strength of
being released from the shaking (strong or weak)
1. Definition
origin of the earthquake. produced by the earthquake
at a certain location.
Richter Scale measures Mercalli scale determines
the quantity of seismic the amount of damage
2. Scale
energy released by an caused by earthquake. Relies
earthquake. on human observation
