What scale is used today to measure earthquakes?
sizemograph
What scale gives the intensity of earthquakes?
Richter scale is used to measure earthquakes magnitude Shake intensity is measured on the Mercalli scale
What is the range in magnitudes for earthquakes and what scale is used to measure them?
8.0
What scale is used to measure earthquake intensity?
The moment magnitude scale is used to measure the magnitude of large earthquakes. The Richter scale is still used to make an initial estimate of the magnitude of larger earthquakes and to measure small and moderate ones (those with a magnitude below 7).
Is a saffir-simpson scale used to measure the strength and the magnitude of an earthquke?
No. The Saffir-Simpson scale is used to rate hurricane strength. Earthquakes are measure on the Moment Magnitude scale (formerly the Richter scale).
Used to measure the strength of earthquakes?
a Richter scale
Which scale is used to measure the destructive effects of earthquakes?
Earthquake measure
What scale is used today to measure earthquakes?
sizemograph

What machine is used to measure power of an earthquakes?
richter scale
What is the range in magnitudes for earthquakes and what scale is used to measure them?
8.0
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
What is the numerical scale used to express the strength of an earthquake?
The Richter scale is used to measure the strength of earthquakes.
What scale is used to measure earthquake intensity?
The moment magnitude scale is used to measure the magnitude of large earthquakes. The Richter scale is still used to make an initial estimate of the magnitude of larger earthquakes and to measure small and moderate ones (those with a magnitude below 7).
