Although large, the recent earthquake, or any other earthquake, will have no effect on the earths rotational spin. A day is still 24 hours long.

When there is a geological change, such as an earthquake or volcano eruption, it can cause shifts in the Earth's surface, leading to things like landslides, tsunamis, or the formation of new land formations. These changes can have both short-term and long-term impacts on the environment and ecosystem.
One way the Earth's surface can change slowly is through the process of erosion, where rocks and soil are gradually worn away by natural elements like wind, water, and ice. This can lead to the shaping of landscapes over long periods of time.
most people say 20,000 million years ago, but thats impossible!
The Meckering earthquake occurred in the Australian town on October 14, 1968 and destroyed the town. It occurred due to surface faulting up to 3 meters high and 40 kilometers long.
The energy from an earthquake travels in the form of seismic waves through the Earth's layers. When these waves reach the surface, they cause the ground to shake, creating the tremors that are felt during an earthquake.
The surface composition of Venus is believed to be similar to Earths, largely silicon based rock. Its difficult to say exactly what the surface is as space craft cannot survive long enough on its surface to be able to analyse and send back detailed information.
