What are the intensity and the magnitude of the earthquake in the Philippine?
180
How a magnitude of 8.0 earthquake can be classified as a low- intensity earthquake?
a magnitude-8.0 earthquake can be classified as a low intensity earthquake because depending on where it occured, is realllyyy depends on how many people felt it and how bad it affected them by damaging things
What are the measure of the strength of an earthquake is called?
The Richter magnitude scale is used to measure the strength of an earthquake.
What scale is used to measure earthquake intensity?
The moment magnitude scale is used to measure the magnitude of large earthquakes. The Richter scale is still used to make an initial estimate of the magnitude of larger earthquakes and to measure small and moderate ones (those with a magnitude below 7).
What two scales are used to measure the intensity and magnitude of earthquakes?
Mercalli and Richter scales
The Richter scale measures magnitude or intensity?
Magnitude
Diffentiate between intensity and magnitude?
Intensity and magnitude can mean the same thing, although it is a weak connection. The word intensity generally refers to our emotions and how we feel. Magnitude refers to size.
What are the intensity and the magnitude of the earthquake in the Philippine?
180
How are earthquake magnitude and intensity measured?
Earthquake magnitude is measured using a number of differing scales including the Richter scale, the moment magnitude scale and the surface magnitude scale. Intensity is measured using he Modified Mercalli intensity scale.
How a magnitude-8.0 earthquake could be classified as a low-intensity earthquake?
A magnitude of 8.0 earthquake could be classified as a low intensity by descriptions of damage to buildings and terrain. The intensity is often greatest near the earthquakes epicenter.
What is much stronger magnitude or intensity?
Magnitude is a measure of the total energy released by an earthquake, while intensity is a measure of the effects of an earthquake at a specific location. Magnitude is a more objective measurement, while intensity can vary depending on distance from the epicenter and local geology.
How a magnitude earthquake could be classified as a low-intensity earthquake?
A magnitude of 8.0 earthquake could be classified as a low intensity by descriptions of damage to buildings and terrain. The intensity is often greatest near the earthquakes epicenter.
What operty does a scalar have?
Scalars have magnitude (size). This is in contrast with vectors, which have both a magnitude and a direction.
How a magnitude of 8.0 earthquake can be classified as a low- intensity earthquake?
a magnitude-8.0 earthquake can be classified as a low intensity earthquake because depending on where it occured, is realllyyy depends on how many people felt it and how bad it affected them by damaging things
What is another word for earthquake strength?
Magnitude
Define magnitude and intensity?
Magnitude typically refers to the size or extent of something, while intensity refers to the degree or amount of force or energy involved in a situation. In the context of natural disasters, magnitude is used to measure the size of events like earthquakes, while intensity relates to the impact felt by people and structures at specific locations.
Why is the intensity value of an earthquake more meaningful than magnitude to a non scientist?
The magnitude measures the total energy release. The intensity measures the... well, the instantaneous "shock" felt by an observer.
