The force of an earthquake is?
'..... is measured on the Richter scale.'Transform Fault Boundaries.the plate of the earth pushes oppositedirections and that causes the earth to shake
How can you measured the earthquake?
The magnitude of an earthquake is measured with a seismograph and the readout is measured using the Richter scale - See Sources and related links for more information.
What's the biggest earthquake?
The biggest earthquake measured 9.5 on the ritcher scale.
What is the amount of damage caused by an earthquake is called?
The size of an earthquake is measured on the Ricter scale it can also be measured on the Mercalli scale.For an example the 2008 earthquake in China was 7.8 on the Rictor scale and in was XI on the Mercalli scale
What is earthquake intensity and how is it measured?
A earthquake occurs when two tectonic plates rub or collide and create sicmic activity below earth! It is measured on a Richter scale from 1-10... :)
What is an earthquake categorized as?
An Earthquake is classified in the Natural Disaster category.

IS Earthquake is force or motion?
An earthquake is a force craking in the air.
SI measure of force and weight?
Force is measured in Newtons. Weight is a force, therefore it is also measured in Newtons.Force is measured in Newtons. Weight is a force, therefore it is also measured in Newtons.Force is measured in Newtons. Weight is a force, therefore it is also measured in Newtons.Force is measured in Newtons.

How is the strength of an earthquake measured?
You use a seismograph to measure the strength of an earthquake.
What parts of an earthquake can be measured?
epicenter
What are earthquakes measured?
The strength of an earthquake is measured on the Richter scale. The Richter scale is logarithmic, meaning that if the earthquake's strength increases by 1 on the Richter scale, it is 10 times more powerful, e.g. an earthquake measuring 5.0 is 10x more powerful than an earthquake measuring 4.0. The strength of an earthquake is measured using a seismograph which measures the vibrations in the ground.
What number was the Haitian earthquake?
The Haiti Earthquake measured about 7 on the Richter Scale.
What's the biggest earthquake?
The biggest earthquake measured 9.5 on the ritcher scale.
