When two lithospheric plates slide past each other, violent effects are caused. The jagged edges of the plates sometimes get caught against each other. When they get released after a tug of war of tectonic plates, the energy released causes vibrations. These vibrations move in the form of waves and shake the earth violently, and this results in the earthquake.
