What else can I help you with?
Why can't you use a Mercalli scale to measure undersea earthquake?
Earthquakescan be measured using the Mercalli Scale, which ranks earthquakes on their effects, such as how they were felt and the damage they caused. Undersea earthquakes can't be measured with this scale because they do not cause this type of damage
What are the names of the types of scales that measure the effects of earthquakes?
TheRichter Scale created by Charles Richter and the Mercalli Scale created by Giuseppe Mercalli.
Does the Richter scale measure intensity?
The Richter scale measures the magnitude of an earthquake, which is the amount of energy released at the source. It does not measure the intensity or effects of the earthquake at different locations. It is commonly used to compare the size of earthquakes.
What is the name of the scale that you measure earthquakes?
Richter scale
Do you measure earthquakes with Richter scale or the Mercalli scale?
The Richter scale
What sort of graf can you mejer earthquakes with?
You can measure earthquakes on the Moment magnitude scale or the Richter scale
What do scientists measure earthquakes in?
the rictor scale
What does the mercallic scale measure?
An earthquakes intensity
What scale measure earthquakes strength?
magnitude
What are the standard units used to measure the magnitude of earthquakes?
The standard units used to measure the magnitude of earthquakes are the Richter scale and the moment magnitude scale.
What scale gives the intensity of earthquakes?
Richter scale is used to measure earthquakes magnitude Shake intensity is measured on the Mercalli scale
The three major scales used to measure earthquakes are Mercalli Scale Richter Scale and Magnitude Scale true or false?
False. The three major scales used to measure earthquakes are the Mercalli Intensity Scale, the Richter Scale, and the Moment Magnitude Scale. The Mercalli Scale measures the intensity of shaking and its effects on people and structures, while the Richter and Moment Magnitude Scales quantify the energy released by an earthquake.
