Yes we still use the richtor scale today,, to find the force of the earthquake.
The Richtor scale only goes to 10. If you are talking about from the Mercalli scale then it is about 9.3ish on the Richtor scale
8.9
The highest earthquake on the Richter Scale was in Val diva, Chile the magnitude was 9.5 in 1960
the scale used to measure the intensity of earthquakes
Earthquakes with lower magnitude can cause more damage than higher ranking earthquakes because sometimes the buildings are easier to break in some areas than others for example : an earthquake with a 6 on the richtor scale in Texas may do more damage than a 7 on the richtor scale in California.
The Puyehue Volcano along the coast of Chile caused a 9.5 earthquake on the Richtor Scale. This happened on May 22, 1960.
it was few weeks back in July 2010 in Washington D.C.,although it wasn`t very high on the Richtor scale it was only a point 3, there was no damage.
Richtor scales
Germany, was Richtor among other variations
They still use normal guns and knives, but on the smaller scale. Lower calibur weapons, but still full size.
Yep.
The instrument to use to measure the mass of a cricket ball is a scale. The balance scale is still used today with gram weights to increase the weight until the scale arms are balanced.
