Nothing. Weight is the force of gravity acting on objects with mass. It is measured in units of Newtons.
The Richter scale is not a physical or mechanical object but a mathematical scale used to rate the magnitude (the amount of energy released by) of earthquakes.
What else can I help you with?
What event's magnitude is expressed as a number on the Richter Scale?
An earthquake's magnitude is expressed as a number on the Richter Scale.
What it measured on the Richter scale?
The Richter scale measures the magnitude of seismic waves produced by an earthquake, which provides an estimate of the energy released at the earthquake's source. A higher Richter scale number indicates a stronger earthquake.
What did Charles Richter discover?
Charles Richter developed the Richter scale in collaboration with Beno Gutenberg. This scale is used to measure the magnitude of seismic events, such as earthquakes. It is logarithmic and allows for comparison of the energy released by different earthquakes.
Why is the R in Richter scale capitalized?
Because it's Charles Richter's last name... He made the Richter Scale... The Richter Scale can only go up to a 9.9999999(continuous 9)... In Japan in March 2011 the earthquake was a 9.1... It was the 3rd largest earthquake on record
How many parts is the Richter scale divided into?
There is no upper or lower limit on the Richter magnitude scale and as such there are an unlimited number of divisions! However in practical terms, the Richter scale is not suitable for measuring earthquakes with magnitudes greater than 6.9.
What do you weigh on a Richter scale?
earthquakes
What do you Richter weigh scale?
The Richter scale was developed in the 1930's as a mathematical device to measure and compare the size of earthquakes
Do you measure earthquakes with Richter scale or the Mercalli scale?
The Richter scale
How do you use Richter Scale in a sentence?
My rebuilt engine is about 7.5 on the Richter scale! Yesterday's earthquake read 3.2 on the Richter scale. The Richter scale was developed in the 1930s.
What is a numerical scale used to express the strength of an earthquake?

Have tsunamis scale of Richter?
No. The Richter Scale rates the intensity of earthquakes. There is not intensity scale for tsunamis.
What is the Richter scales limit?
The scale of Richter scale is 10. It calculates the earthquake on a scale of 10.
What scale is used to describe the strength of an earthquakes?
The scale used to measure the strength of an earthquake is called the Richter scale
The Richter scale is based on measurements of?
