How does the strength of an earthquake change as you go up the Richter scale?

The strength of an earthquake increases exponentially as you go up the Richter scale. For each whole number increase on the Richter scale, the amplitude of ground motion and energy release increases by about tenfold. So, a magnitude 6 earthquake is 10 times stronger than a magnitude 5 earthquake, and a magnitude 7 earthquake is 100 times stronger than a magnitude 5 earthquake.
