Earthquakes.
I believe you meant the Richter scale. It is a scale used to measure the magnitude of earthquakes based on the amplitude of seismic waves. The Richter scale is logarithmic, meaning each whole number increase represents a tenfold increase in amplitude and approximately 31.6 times more energy released.
The scale that rates earthquake damage at a particular location is called the Modified Mercalli Intensity (MMI) scale. It measures the intensity of shaking and resulting damage felt at a specific location during an earthquake, rather than the earthquake's magnitude.
When did nolie rictor work
Slate, being a metamorphic rock, would not have a hardness listing on the Mohs scale of mineral hardness.
The temperature scale used to measure Earth's heat is called the Celsius scale.
the rictor scale
the rictor scale
The spelling of the historic scale for earthquakes is Richter, for Charles Francis Richter (1900-1985). There is a fictional character named Rictor in the X-men comics.
and earhtquake scoring 8.9 on the rictor scale triggered the tsunami
The size of an earthquake is measured on the Ricter scale it can also be measured on the Mercalli scale.For an example the 2008 earthquake in China was 7.8 on the Rictor scale and in was XI on the Mercalli scale
The most commonly used scale to measure the magnitude of earthquakes is the Richter scale. However, the moment magnitude scale (Mw) is now more widely used as it provides a more accurate measurement for larger earthquakes. Other scales include the Modified Mercalli Intensity (MMI) scale, which measures the intensity of shaking at a specific location.
They could use the information from the seismic wave scale
Rictor was created in 1987.
The Rickter (RICK-tur) scale has been popular for decades to measure the intensity of earthquakes, yet it had its issues. These days the Mercalli scale is most often used by geologists and vulcanologists.
Rictor Norton was born in 1945.

Millions lost their homes and 225,000 died as the rictor scale was 6.9. Hundreds of thousands were injured as well
