Earthquakes are measured using two primary scales: the Richter scale and the Moment Magnitude Scale (Mw). The Richter scale quantifies the amount of energy released at the earthquake's source, while the Moment Magnitude Scale provides a more accurate measurement of the earthquake's size by considering the area of the fault that slipped and the amount of slip. Seismographs are instrumental in this process, as they record the seismic waves generated by the earthquake, allowing scientists to analyze and determine its magnitude and intensity.
