Answer:

There are two types of earthquakes: tectonic and volcanic earthquakes.

Many detected and undetected earthquakes happen every year. And the most common earthquake is the tectonic earthquake.

The earthquake that is driven by the sudden release of energy within some limited region of the rocks of earth is called tectonic earthquake.

Tectonic earthquakes occur at plate tectonic boundaries. This usually happen when the large, thin plates of the Earth's crust and upper mantle become stuck as they move past one another. They lock together and pressure builds up. When they finally release, earthquakes occur.

The strength of an earthquake is measured by magnitude and intensity. In the Philippines, the intensity of an earthquake is determined using the PHIVOLCS Earthquake Intensity Scale (PEIS).
