Earthquake


Is a hurricane stronger than an earthquake?

In terms of the maximum amount of energy released, an earthquake is stronger.


Why is a tornado stronger than an earthquake?

It isn't. An earthquake releases far more energy than a tornado.


How many times stronger is a 8.0 earthquake than none at all?

A magnitude 8.0 earthquake is 10 times stronger than a magnitude 7.0 earthquake and 100 times stronger than a magnitude 6.0 earthquake. It releases significantly more energy compared to smaller magnitude earthquakes.


Was Chili'S earthquake stronger than Hati's earthquake?

How much stronger is a magnitude 8 earthquake than a magnitude 6?

A magnitude 8 earthquake is 1,000 times stronger than a magnitude 6 earthquake in terms of energy released. It can cause significantly more damage and have a larger impact on structures and the environment.


How many times stronger is a magnitude 9 earthquake than a 5 earthquake?

A magnitude 9 earthquake is 10,000 times stronger than a magnitude 5 earthquake. The magnitude scale is logarithmic, meaning each whole number increase represents a tenfold increase in amplitude and 32-fold increase in energy release.


How strong is a 7.9 earthquake from 4.6 earthquake?

If you mean how stronger a 7.9 earthquake is then a 4.6 earthquake, then a 7.9 earthquake is way stronger. It can take down buildings but then again so can a 4.6, still you've sorter got you're answer. But the 7 in 7.9 means 700 and the 0.9 is 90 so baisically your question is: How stronger is a 790 earthquake from a 460 earthquake?


How much stronger is a 9.0 than a 4.0 of an earthquake?

A LOT stronger. The force of an earthquake is expressed using a log 10 scale of energy. A 5.0 earthquake is 10 times stronger than a 4.0, a 6.0 is 10 times stronger than a 5.0, and so on. 9 is the highest number on the scale, and would be a "Great" earthquake, as opposed to minor, moderate, strong or major. Total destruction of man-made structures, etc.


Is an earthquake stronger than a tornado?

In terms of the energy output, yes.


Which is stronger a Tornado or an Earthquake?

In terms of energy output an earthquake is stronger.


How much stronger is 6.6 earthquake than an 8.3 earthquake?

An 8.3 earthquake is significantly stronger than a 6.6 earthquake. Each whole number increase on the Richter scale represents a tenfold increase in the amplitude of seismic waves, meaning an 8.3 earthquake releases exponentially more energy than a 6.6 earthquake.
