Earthquake damage is the damage to property and life from the ground vibrations during an earthquake. The Richter scale is one way to measure the scale of earthquake damage. For example, a magnitude of 5 is strong enough to damage weak buildings.

The earthquake began at 5:46 and it lasted for 20 seconds.
That would be a "kind of strong" earthquake but 8+ is huge.
30 times more energy released. 10 times more ground motion*

Earthquake damage is the damage to property and life from the ground vibrations during an earthquake. The Richter scale is one way to measure the scale of earthquake damage. For example, a magnitude of 5 is strong enough to damage weak buildings.
Depth of the earthquake: Deeper earthquakes tend to be less intense than shallow ones. Magnitude of the earthquake: The higher the magnitude, the more intense the earthquake. Distance from the epicenter: The closer an area is to the epicenter, the more intense the shaking will be. Type of soil and rock: Soft soils can amplify seismic waves, leading to stronger shaking. Building structures: Buildings with poor construction or located on unstable ground are more likely to sustain damage during an earthquake.
1.The earthquake in Haiti i think in 2009 2.The earthquake in San Francisco 3.The Earthquake in Japan and then the Tsunami 4.The earthquake in Seattle Washington in 2001 5.The earthquake in Califronia
Roughly 32 times more energy is released in a Magnitude 6 earthquake than in a Mag.5 quake.
The Richter scale is logarithmic, so 5-magnitude is 10 times as strong as 4-magnitude, and 6-magnitude is 100 times as strong.
1. What were you doing? 2. Were you scared? 3. How did you react? 4. Was there damage? 5. Did you feel aftershocks? 6. Were you prepared? 7. What did it feel like afterwards? 8. Did you get help after the earthquake? 9. What was on your mind during the earthquake? 10. How did this directly affect you?
The amount of soil erosion that drains from an unprotected residential lot during construction can vary depending on factors such as slope, soil type, and weather conditions. On average, it can range from 5 to 10 tons of soil per acre per year. Implementing erosion control measures can significantly reduce the amount of soil erosion during construction.
Because of the Richter Scale's logarithmic properties, a number 5 earthquake is 100 times more severe than a number 3 earthquake.
Google it, there are many Earthquake sites!
