On June 8, 2024 at 18:17 UTC, a magnitude 4.0 shallow crustal earthquake struck 4 km ESE of Nawalgarh, India, at a depth of 10.7 km and coordinates 27.8429°, 75.3219°.
Physical scale: An earthquake of magnitude 4.0 releases seismic energy equivalent to roughly 15 metric tons of TNT. Empirical fault-scaling laws (Wells & Coppersmith, 1994) estimate the subsurface rupture length at approximately 347 m — a useful intuition for the size of the slip patch on the fault.
