The 2011 earthquake was a 5.8 magnitude on the Richter scale.
No. The Richter's scale measures the magnitude or intensity of an earthquake on a scale up to ten.
No. The second highest earthquake magnitude (depending on the source of the information) was either the Boxing Day 2004 Indian Ocean earthquake (magnitude 9.1 - 9.3) or the 1964 Alaskan earthquake (magnitude 9.2). The Haitian Earthquake in January 2010 had a Richter magnitude of 7.2.
The Richter Scale measures the magnitude of an earthquake which is another way of describing the energy released in the earthquake.
The Richter Scale
The magnitude of the 2010 Haiti earthquake on the Richter scale was 7.0
The Haiti earthquake measured around 7.0 on the Richter Scale.
The Haiti earthquake was measued at a magnitude of seven on the ricter scale.
7.0 on the Richter scale.
The Haiti Earthquake measured about 7 on the Richter Scale.
7.0 magnatude
Yes, they could, thanks to the Richter Scale.
it was a 7 on the Richter scale
Here are four facts about Haiti Earthquake on Tuesday the 12th of January 2010: It had a magnitude of 7.0 on the Richter scale. It was the worst earthquake in Haiti since the year 1770. The largest after-shock reached 5.9 on the Richter scale. Over a year on, Haitians are still dying because they have diseases because they have no home.
The Richter scale is used to rate earthquakes, not hurricanes. The earthquake that hit Haiti in 2010 was a 7.0. Haiti has been hit by many hurricanes. We would need to know which one in order to give the rating.
The magnitude of the earthquake was 7.0. The first estimates were of a 7.3 Richter magnitude quake. and the highest aftershocks were 5.9 on the Richter scale
This answer is true, I assure you because I discussed it in my Advanced Social Studies class, and saw it on the news. On the Richter scale, the disastrous earthquake reached a whopping 7.0. Then the aftershock was 6.1. It was horrible!
