The earthquake that struck the capital Delhi on Monday morning shook many areas of North India including Delhi-NCR. There is no news of any damage from this earthquake yet, but many people say that the tremors were so strong that it became one of the most terrifying experiences of their lives. During the earthquake, thunder was also heard inside the ground, which caused panic among the people. However, now experts have told why this sound was heard.
This is the reason for the thunder sound.
According to the US Geological Survey (USGS), during an earthquake, the ground vibrates, causing short-duration seismic wave motion that reaches the air and becomes sound waves. These sound waves can cause vibrations in the atmosphere. According to the US Geological Survey, the shallower or lesser the earthquake's epicenter, the more energy can reach the surface. High-frequency seismic waves pass through the ground, due to which the sound of thunder is heard during an earthquake. The epicenter of the quake in Delhi was just five kilometers inside the ground, due to which people heard a loud sound.
The epicenter of the earthquake was near Dhaula Kuan in Delhi.
An earthquake of 4.0 magnitude hit many parts of Delhi-NCR on Monday morning. The National Center for Seismology said that tremors were felt at 5:36 am on Monday. The tremors were so strong that frightened people came out of their homes. Many people woke up from deep sleep. The epicenter of the earthquake was near Durgabai Deshmukh College of Special Education in the Dhaula Kuan area of Delhi.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi also tweeted about this incident. He wrote, 'Earthquake tremors were felt in Delhi and surrounding areas. Everyone is told to remain calm and follow safety precautions. Along with this, there is a need to be alert about possible tremors. Officials are keeping a close watch on the situation.'
