Magnitude is a measure of the energy released by the earthquake - it is an absolute value and does not vary with where it is measured. Intensity measures the strength of the shaking at a particular location and will vary with distance, substrate conditions and other factors. It is a subjective measure which depends on observation, not measurement. The reference below sets it all out for you.
Is also an answer but here's another answer:
This is my answer:D(Magnitude / Intensity Comparison)(Magnitude and Intensity measure different characteristics of earthquakes. Magnitude measures the energy released at the source of the earthquake. Magnitude is determined from measurements on seismographs while Intensity measures the strength of shaking produced by the earthquake at a certain location. Intensity is determined from effects on people, human structures, and the natural environment.)
The difference between magnitude and intensity is.... Intensity is the effects of the earth quake. aka: damage and devastation. Magnitude is the strength of the earth quake that is measured by the Richter Scale. (correct me if im wrong at all) :)
The magnitude of an earthquake is the amount of energy released at the source of the earthquake and is measured by a seismograph. Intensity is shaking strength of an earthquake at a particular location.
the relationship between earthquakes magnitude is the size or amount of energy an earthquake produces and has no connection to hour often earthquakes occur.
Earthquake magnitude is measured using a number of differing scales including the Richter scale, the moment magnitude scale and the surface magnitude scale. Intensity is measured using he Modified Mercalli intensity scale.
It isn't. A magnitude 8.0 is a very high intensity earthquake.

The magnitude of an earthquake is the amount of energy released at the source of the earthquake and is measured by a seismograph. Intensity is shaking strength of an earthquake at a particular location.
Intensity and magnitude can mean the same thing, although it is a weak connection. The word intensity generally refers to our emotions and how we feel. Magnitude refers to size.
cold is more bitter than cool. e.g: air=>breeze=>wind weep=>cry smile=>laugh difference only magnitude or intensity.
Magnitude
the relationship between earthquakes magnitude is the size or amount of energy an earthquake produces and has no connection to hour often earthquakes occur.
Earthquake magnitude is measured using a number of differing scales including the Richter scale, the moment magnitude scale and the surface magnitude scale. Intensity is measured using he Modified Mercalli intensity scale.
The difference is that intensity is the extent of damage released by an earthquake and is measured differently at different places depending on its distance from the epicenter while the magnitude is the amount of energy released by an earthquake and it has a fixed energy as it is released by an earthquake.
Magnitude is the measure of the brightness of a star or other celestial body.And, intensity is the measure of energy flux
It isn't. A magnitude 8.0 is a very high intensity earthquake.
No difference only magnitude
The intensity of light from a point source measured by an observer and the magnitude of the forces of gravity between two masses are both inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them. And so is the magnitude of the forces between two electric charges or two electrically-charged objects.
