The crust of the earth shakes because – 

1. Movements occurring in the crust of the earth produce a lot of stress in the rock strata. 

2. When this stress accumulates beyond a limit, it tends to get released in the crust.

3. Release of stress causes release of energy. 

4. The release of energy produces energy waves and this makes the earth’s crust to shake.
