Detailed Solution

The point at which an earthquake occurs below the Earth's surface is the epicenter. At the focal point, waves were generated and these waves traveled over a large area to spread the damage caused by the earthquake.
The epicenter (or hypocenter) of an earthquake is the place on Earth where the earthquake starts. The epicenter of an earthquake is the place directly above the focus on the earth's surface. During an earthquake, the most violent tremors occur at the epicenter. Sometimes the earth's surface cracks through a fault. Sometimes the movement occurs deep below and does not disturb the surface.
