Let us inform that on November 20 last month, tremors of an earthquake were felt in Jalore, Rajasthan. According to the National Center for Seismology, the earthquake at that time measured 4.6 on the Richter scale, with no damages of any kind.

Why does an earthquake happen?

The earth mainly consists of four layers. Inner core, outer core, mantle and crust. The crust and core of the upper mantle is known as the lithosphere. This layer, 50 km thick, is divided into several sections. These are called tectonic plates. These tectonic plates continue to move in place. When this plate begins to move a lot, it is called an earthquake. These panels can move from their place both horizontally and vertically.

This is how the intensity of an earthquake is measured.

The Richter scale is used to measure the intensity of an earthquake. This is called the Richter volume test scale. Earthquakes are measured on the Richter scale with a score of 1 to 9. An earthquake is measured from its epicenter.
