How many times stronger is a magnitude 9 earthquake than a magnitude 7?
Answer #1:by a magnitude of 2======================Answer #2:by a factor of 100
How many times greater is the maximum ground motion of a magnitude 5 earthquake compared with that of a magnitude 3 earthquake?
The maximum ground motion of a magnitude 5 earthquake is 100 times larger than a magnitude 3 earthquake.
The seismic waves in a 6.1 magnitude earthquake are what times larger than those of a 3.1 magnitude earthquake?
10
How much larger is the wave amplitude of an 8.0 earthquake than a 6.0 earthquake?
The amplitude of a magnitude 8 earthquake is 100 times larger than a magnitude 6 earthquake.
What is the difference in strength between a 7.0 magnitude earthquake and a 9.0 magnitude earthquake?
-3.0 magnitude or if you want the ground motion: Each time the magnitude increases by one unit, the measured ground motion becomes 10 times larger. For example, an earthquake with a magnitude of 5.0 on the Richter scale will produce 10 times as much ground motion as an earthquake with a magnitude of 4.0. Furthermore, an earthquake with a magnitude of 6.0 will produce 100 times as much ground motion (10 × 10) as an earthquake with a magnitude of 4.0.
Star A is a first magnitude star. Star B is a sixth magnitude star. Which star is brighter and by how much?
A magnitude 1 star is 100 times brighter than a magnitude 6 star.A magnitude 1 star is 100 times brighter than a magnitude 6 star.A magnitude 1 star is 100 times brighter than a magnitude 6 star.A magnitude 1 star is 100 times brighter than a magnitude 6 star.
Order of magnitude 100 000 000?
The order of magnitude of 100 000 000 is considered to be 8.
What is the magnitude weakest possible earthquake recorded?
it might be 1 magnitude.
What magnitude is not possible when a vector of a magnitude of 3 is added to a vector of a magnitude of 4?
A magnitude of less than 1. cw: An absolute magnitude of less than 1.
How many times larger is a 5.5 magnitude earthquake than a 3.5 magnitude earthquake?
100 times larger
How much stronger is a magnitude 8 earthquake than a magnitude 6?
A magnitude 8 earthquake is 100 times stronger than a magnitude 6 quake.
What is magnitude in a vector?
A vector has n both magnitude and direction. The magnitude is the vector length or value. For example if car is traveling at 60 mph heading East, its magnitude (speed) is 60 mph. Or, if a force of 100 pounds is applied at a 45 degree angle,its magnitude is 100 pounds.
How many times stronger is a magnitude 9 earthquake than a magnitude 7?
Answer #1:by a magnitude of 2======================Answer #2:by a factor of 100
What is the difference between first magnitude and 29th magnitude?
Brightness. A 1st magnitude star is one of the brightest stars in the sky. Things at 7th magnitude are just barely visible to the naked eye, and objects at 29th magnitude are barely detectable even with the largest telescopes. Mathematically, as you move up a magnitude the next star is about 2.512 times brighter. So you need to keep multiplying until you've gone from magnitude 29 right up to 1st magnitude. In fact an increase in brightness of five magnitudes is an increase of exactly 100 times. So, in this case the answer is : 100 x 100 x 100 x 100 x 100 x about 15.85 That's about: 158,500,000,000 times brighter.
Compared to a magnitude 1 star a star with a magnitude of 2 is?
A magnitude 1 star is about 2.512 times brighter than a magnitude 2 star. The exact factor is the fifth root of 100 - this means that a difference of 5 magnitudes is equivalent to a brightness factor of 100.
What magnitude is not possible when a vector of magnitude 3 is added to a vector of magnitude 4?
7
Is a third-magnitude star ten times as bright as a fourth-magnitude star?
No. The difference in 1 magnitude is the 5th root of 100 which is about 2.512. So a 3rd magnitude star is 2.512 times as bright as a 4th magnitude star.
