That would be the Richter Scale! These are devices placed underground that measure vibrations in the earth. By the way, this was obviously a homework question. You should start doing the research yourself.But anyways, hope this helps :D
First, how they cause damage is different. Tornadoes cause damage with extreme winds and flying debris. Earthquakes cause damage by shaking buildings and deforming the ground beneath them. Weaker tornadoes cause damage almost exclusively to the outside of a building. Siding and roof material can be stripped away, gutters and awnings taken down, and windows broken. Stronger tornadoes can tear away roofs and walls and scatter some of the debris downwind. When houses are leveled by very strong tornadoes even greater amounts of debris are scattered. The very strongest of tornadoes blow houses away, leaving behind a bare foundation. In a sense tornadoes destroy buildings from the top down and from the outside in. Minor earthquakes can crack walls and cause loose objects to fall. Stronger earthquakes can lead to the partial collapse of many buildings. Very strong earthquakes will level most buildings, but the debris mostly stays on the foundation. Since earthquakes originate underground they easily cause damage to a building's foundation. Damage to the foundation is rare in tornadoes.
Earthquake-Hazard Levels are the likeliness of earthquakes occurring in certain regions.
it gone to be crazy,hahaha
Take a sound pressure level meter, but pay attention to your ears.
The Richter Scale.

Indirectly yes. Earthquakes cause mass damage and destruction, depending on the severity. A lower level earthquake won't cause as much damage, might just be a slight rumble. But a higher level earthquake (a prime example being the one in Japan in 2011) will cause mass damage and possibly a Tsunami depending on the location. Earthquakes of high magnitudes can cause buildings to fall, bridges to collapse, and can kill thousands. Tsunamis make that number go up.

Seismograph
According to the wiki, Sharpness can give 1,5 hearths more damage per level. A regular iron sword does 3 damage. Sharpness II gives 1,5 * 2 = 3 hearths extra damage.
earthquake zone level
deciBels
Yes. pH measures the acidity or the level of hydronium ions, and pCO2 measures the level of cabron dioxide. They are not mutually exclusive.
Sound level meters Loudness meters Noise dosimeter
Most tsunamis are caused by earthquakes below the sea level. These undersea earthquakes are a result of shifting in the earths tectonic plates.
at 100Db sound can start to damage the ears.
