How do scientist compare the size of an earthquake to the size of another one?
The richer scale
Define Richter Scale?
- The magnitude of an earthquake can be measured on a scale called Richter scale.- A Richter scale assigns a number each earthquake. This is also known as the Richter magnitude scale.
What is specifically does the Richter scale measure?
Richter scale measures the ground motion from an earthquakes to find the earthquakes strength. mercalli scale measures expresses intensity in roman numerals from I to XII and provides a description of the effects of each earthquake intensity.
What do you use to measure the power of an earthquake?
A Richter scale measures the power of a earthquake
What are 3 ways to measure an earthquake?
the Richter scale, Mercalli scale, and Moment Magnitude scale
What natural phenomena are measured by the'richer scale'?
the Richter scale is used to measure the power, strength of an earthquake
What is the richer scaleused to measure flood levels or the heat of a volcano or the strength in earthquakes?
The Richter scale is used to rate the magnitude of an earthquake -- the amount of energy it released
What scale does PAGASA used to measure the intensity of an earthquake?
PAGASA used richter scale to measure the intensity of an earthquake

What scale is used to describe the strength of an earthquakes?
The scale used to measure the strength of an earthquake is called the Richter scale
Does the Richter scale measure how deep an earthquake is?
No. The Richter's scale measures the magnitude or intensity of an earthquake on a scale up to ten.
What are the advantages the moment magnitude scale to measure an earthquake?
to rate an earthquake
What scale is most often used to measure the scale of an earthquake?
The Moment Magnitude scale.
How much did the haiti earthquake measure on the Richter scale?
The Haiti earthquake measured around 7.0 on the Richter Scale.
What do you use to measure the power of an earthquake?
A Richter scale measures the power of a earthquake
