Afghanistan, in the eyes of science, know how much energy came out of the earth

new Delhi. The earthquake in Afghanistan on Thursday night showed its effect in India as well as in Tajikistan and Pakistan. The intensity of this earthquake on the reactor scale was 5.9. Its center was in Hindukush in Afghanistan. Its depth was about 200 km. The surprising thing is that this earthquake was also an ‘Atom Bomb’ in a way. Actually, the German Research Center for Geosciences also measured the energy of this earthquake. The results that came after measuring it were surprising. According to the National Center of Seismology, the initial tremors of this earthquake were felt at around 7:55 pm.

According to the German Research Center for Geosciences, the earthquake in Afghanistan generated energy equivalent to 5351 tonnes of TNT explosives. Not only this, this earthquake had 0.3 times more energy than the explosion of an atom bomb. For example, when bombs were thrown on Hiroshima and Nagasaki of Japan during World War-2, one bomb produced 15 thousand tons of TNT explosive, while the other bomb generated energy as much as 21 thousand tons of TNT explosive. The strength of the earthquake in Afghanistan can be gauged from the fact that it generated 6.3 gigawatt hours of energy, which is enough to light up 40 lakh 50 thousand houses of average size.

Tremors felt in many parts of India
This earthquake was so powerful that it affected Jammu-Kashmir, Uttarakhand, Tajikistan and Pakistan as well. Earlier on January 1, there was an earthquake in the northern part of India. According to the NCS report, an earthquake of magnitude 3.8 was felt in the Delhi-NCR region. The epicenter of this earthquake was in Jhajjar, Haryana and its depth was 5 km.

Last earthquake caused havoc in Afghanistan
Please tell, due to this earthquake there was no loss of life or property in Afghanistan and India. However, last year’s earthquake in Afghanistan had killed hundreds of people. In July last year, a 5.9-magnitude earthquake killed over 1,000 Afghans. According to the International Emergency Community, thousands of people were injured at that time and about 1800 houses were destroyed.
