Firstly, earthquake happens
when two blocks of rock or two plates are rubbing against each other. The rocks are still pushing against each other, but not moving. After a while, the rocks break because of all the pressure that's built up. When the rocks break, energy that causes the seismic waves released and then, the earthquake occurs.
