The level of the earthquake. Like lets say an earthquake was a 4.3. That number comes from the Richter sxale.
The Richter scale provides a measure of the magnitude or energy released by an earthquake. It quantifies the amplitude (size) of seismic waves generated by the earthquake, which correlates with the earthquake's strength. The scale is logarithmic, meaning that each whole number increase on the scale represents a tenfold increase in the amplitude of shaking and approximately 31.6 times more energy release.
The magnitude of the 2010 Haiti earthquake on the Richter scale was 7.0

Richter scale measures magnitude of an earthquake, while Marcalli scale measures the strength of an earthquake.
the smallest earthquake recorded on the Richter scale was 0.1
The 2011 earthquake was a 5.8 magnitude on the Richter scale.
An earthquake that was rated 3 on the Richter scale would beignored
Richter scale measures the magnitude of earthquakes.
The Richter Scale
No. The Richter's scale measures the magnitude or intensity of an earthquake on a scale up to ten.
The magnitude of the 2010 Haiti earthquake on the Richter scale was 7.0
It reached 7.0 on the richter scale
4-5 on the Richter scale.
The scale used to measure the strength of an earthquake is called the Richter scale
