Was Chili'S earthquake stronger than Hati's earthquake?
haiti was 7.0 on Richter chiles was 8.8
Is Japan earthquake 2011 the biggest earthquake in the world?
No. The earthquake that caused the Tsunami in Indonesia in 2004 was a bigger earthquake than the one that hit Japan.
Will an earthquake get bigger if it is deeper?
No. Size does not necessarily affect the magnitude of an earthquake. In fact, a deep earthquake will have less of an effect on the surface than a shallow earthquake of the same magnitude.
Difference in homes in less developed countries and developed countries?
homes in less developed countries are built more poorly than in developed countries. for example, when the earthquake struck haiti and shortly sfter there was a stronger earthquake in chile, haitis affect was much worse because of their building's structures.
How much bigger is a magnitude 9.7 earthquake than a 6.8 earthquake?
A magnitude 9.7 earthquake is significantly larger than a 6.8 earthquake. The difference in magnitude signifies a 10^3.7 times increase in amplitude of seismic waves released, resulting in much greater energy and destructive power.
The seismic waves in a 6.1 magnitude earthquake are times larger than those in a 3.1 magnitude earthquake.?
1,000
How big is a tsunami when a 8.8 earthquake happens?
It will be a thousand times bigger than 8.8 it self .
How much bigger is the shake produced by a Richter scale 4 earthquake than that produced by a 3?
10 times
What will happen if the world ends?
If the world ends, then I guess everyone will die
Approximately how many times more powerful will be a 7.9 earthquake than a 6.5?
To my best calculation it will be around 32-35 times bigger and powerful.
How much bigger is a 7 on the Richter scale than a 6?
The seismic waves will have 10 times the amplitude and the earthquake will release approximately 32 times the energy.
How much bigger are the seismic waves in a 6.1 then 3.1?
Seismic waves from a 6.1 magnitude earthquake are significantly larger than those from a 3.1 magnitude earthquake. The Richter scale is logarithmic, meaning each whole number increase represents a tenfold increase in measured amplitude. Therefore, a 6.1 magnitude earthquake produces waves with approximately 31.6 times more energy than a 3.1 magnitude earthquake.
