The Richter scale measures the magnitude of an earthquake which is another way of describing the energy released in the earthquake.
The Richter scale is based on measurements of *Amplitude*. (^_^)
The magnitude of the 2010 Haiti earthquake on the Richter scale was 7.0
The 2011 earthquake was a 5.8 magnitude on the Richter scale.
The Richter scale measures the magnitude of seismic waves produced by an earthquake, which provides an estimate of the energy released at the earthquake's source. A higher Richter scale number indicates a stronger earthquake.
The Richter Scale
No. The Richter's scale measures the magnitude or intensity of an earthquake on a scale up to ten.
4-5 on the Richter scale.
It reached 7.0 on the richter scale
The scale used to measure the strength of an earthquake is called the Richter scale
Richter scale
The Haiti earthquake was measued at a magnitude of seven on the ricter scale.
The Haiti earthquake measured around 7.0 on the Richter Scale.
