Nowadays, we hear a lot of news from the earthquake. Recently, there was a severe earthquake in Nepal, in which a lot of people had gone. Today, Pakistan has also suffered some setbacks, and this is a major disaster. Today, we want to give all our readers some information about the earthquake and hope that this information will help you a lot.
An earthquake is such a natural disaster that nobody gets stressed. This natural disaster hits any place without saying that the loss of substantial public wealth creates havoc all the way.

What is an earthquake?
Sudden vibrations cause earthquakes in the lower surface of the Earth; due to the imbalance of gases in the layers of the Earth's surface part, compression is generated through the same velocities. And the stirring starts on the top surface of the surface. At the same time, according to the momentum of the intensity of the speeds, the upper surface of the Earth starts to burst and gradually subsides. Sometimes the power of the earthquake is so high that the building collapses. The reservoirs are flooded, and at times, even tsunamis and landslides cause earthquakes.
(Earthquake is measured by seismometer)
Earthquakes are counted in the reactor. Two-three reactors are considered normal whereas, seven and above reactors are considered very severe and dangerous earthquakes, which are in the form of heavy destruction.
Cause of earthquake
Wave is the main reason for the earthquake. The waves are generated in the lower surface of the surface. The effect of those waves is seen on the upper surface. In the same way, the intensity of the waves shows the impact of the upcoming earthquake.
Wave type
1. Primary wave
2. Secondary, S, or Shear Waves
3. L or Surface Waves
Primary or P waves =The earliest start of an earthquake in which there is no damage. It is generally a zero to three reactor generated on the Earth.
Secondary, S or Shear Waves =Secondary wave is the second stage in which a person can work well with intelligence.
From four to seven reactors in which the same kind of shaking starts like furniture, vehicle house, and other similar cracks in the walls, the windows start moving.
L or Surface Waves=The most dangerous wave of an earthquake, which causes vast destruction and kills everything. Many times their form is so frightening that only destruction is seen around. Having more than seven reactors, it crosses to eight, nine, ten reactors, in which-
Significant buildings and buildings and bridges fall, floods, even tsunamis. There is no chance of saving anything in it.
(How to protect from the earthquake?)If you work by planning, then any crisis can be avoided. Similarly, safety and caution can be maintained during and after the earthquake.
As soon as an earthquake strikes, feel light-hearted, from the house, office or closed building, stand on Bahar Road or open ground.
Remove the gas cylinder and the main switch of electricity in the house.
Neither drive a vehicle nor travel in cars.
Stand anywhere in a safe and covered place.
Do not stand near any deep place, well, pond, river, sea, and weak and old house.
Before the earthquake, also pay attention to the prediction and natural signs made by scientists, taking safety and precautions and avoiding earthquakes.
