magnitude


What is the difference in strength between a 7.0 magnitude earthquake and a 9.0 magnitude earthquake?

-3.0 magnitude or if you want the ground motion: Each time the magnitude increases by one unit, the measured ground motion becomes 10 times larger. For example, an earthquake with a magnitude of 5.0 on the Richter scale will produce 10 times as much ground motion as an earthquake with a magnitude of 4.0. Furthermore, an earthquake with a magnitude of 6.0 will produce 100 times as much ground motion (10 × 10) as an earthquake with a magnitude of 4.0.

What magnitude scale measures ground motion?

The Richter Scale is what measures the ground motion from an earthquake.


How does force and gravity effect a falling object?

Gravity is a force that accelerates the falling object towards the ground.


How much more ground motion is produced by an easrthquake of magnitude 7.0 than by an earthquake of magnitude 4.0?

ten times as much for each magnitude increase; thus a magnitude 7 is 1000 times more displacement than magnitude 4
