There is some noticeable shaking of indoor items, while there are also rattling noises. It is unlikely there is any significant damage.

What is the difference in energy output between a magnitude 5 earthquake and a magnitude 6 earthquake?
A magnitude 6 earthquake has 10 ten times the energy of a magnitude 5 earthquake.
Magnitude is an earthquake's what?
The magnitude of an earthquake is caluated to measure the amount of energy released during the earthquake.
How many times stronger is a magnitude 9 earthquake than a 5 earthquake?
A magnitude 9 earthquake is 10,000x stronger than a magnitude 5.
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.
How much more ground motion is produced by an earthquake of magnitude 7.0 than by an earthquake of magnitude 4.0?
0.3 magnitude
Will an earthquake get bigger if it is deeper?
No. Size does not necessarily affect the magnitude of an earthquake. In fact, a deep earthquake will have less of an effect on the surface than a shallow earthquake of the same magnitude.
What is the difference in energy output between a magnitude 5 earthquake and a magnitude 6 earthquake?
A magnitude 6 earthquake has 10 ten times the energy of a magnitude 5 earthquake.
What is an earthquake's magnitude a measure of?
An earthquake's magnitude is a measure of how strong it is
Magnitude is an earthquake's what?
The magnitude of an earthquake is caluated to measure the amount of energy released during the earthquake.
What was the magnitude of the earthquake?
7.2 magnitude
What is the energy level difference between a magnitude 5 earthquake and magnitude 6 earthquake?
A magnitude 6 earthquake emits roughly 31 times more energy than a magnitude 5 earthquake. The magnitude 6 quake will also have a maximum seismic wave amplitude of ten times the magnitude 5 earthquake.
What magnitude was the earthquake that hit Chile?
The Earthquake of February 27,2010 had a magnitude of 8.8
What was the magnitude of the recent earthquake in haiti?
The magnitude of Haiti's recent earthquake was 7.0
Why is a 6.0 magnitude earthquake so much more destructive than a 5.0 magnitude earthquake?
Because the "magnitude scale is not linear, it is logarithmic (its numbers are an order of magnitude apart) this mean that the a magnitude 6 earthquake is TEN TIMES more powerful than a magnitude 5 earthquake and a HUNDRED TIMES more powerful than a magnitude 4 earthquake.
Why is 6.0 magnitude earthquake so much more destructive than a 5.0 magnitude earthquake?
Because the "magnitude scale is not linear, it is logarithmic (its numbers are an order of magnitude apart) this mean that the a magnitude 6 earthquake is TEN TIMES more powerful than a magnitude 5 earthquake and a HUNDRED TIMES more powerful than a magnitude 4 earthquake.
How many times stronger is a magnitude 9 earthquake than a 5 earthquake?
A magnitude 9 earthquake is 10,000x stronger than a magnitude 5.
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.
