a. Shaking amplitude => 10^9/10^7 = 100 times greater.

b. Energy release => (10^9/10^7)^(3/2) = 1,000 times greater.

How big was haiti earthquake compared to Chile earthquake?

"chillean earthquake was 80 times stronger than the Haitian quake, based on 7.0 for Haiti and 8.8 for Chille" Wrong. The Earthquake in Chile was 819 times stronger than the one in Haiti. Haiti measured 7.0 in the Moment magnitude scale (which is the ONLY scale used to measure quakes these days. The Richter scale has not been used since the 70's...) while Chile measured 8.8. This is a Logarithmic scale which grows exponentially. Thus, a quake measuring 7.0 is 32 (not 10) times stronger than one measuring 6.0, and so on... So, 8.0 is 32 times stronger than 7.0; and 8.8 is 25.6 times stronger than 8.0. 32 x 25.6 = 819.2


Is the hydrogen bomb is more destructive than the atom bomb and why?

Yes, the hydrogen bomb is more destructive than the atom bomb. This is because it relies on nuclear fusion, which releases much more energy than nuclear fission, the process used in atomic bombs. The sheer power of the hydrogen bomb makes it capable of causing significantly greater devastation.

What is an example of an earthquake focus?

An example of an earthquake focus is the point underground where the seismic energy is released, causing the earthquake. This focus can vary in depth from shallow (less than 70 km) to intermediate (70-300 km) to deep (greater than 300 km) within the Earth's crust.

What is the distributive property of 19x70?

19*70 = (20 - 1)*70 = 20*70 - 1*70 = 1400 - 70 = 1330. Some may suggest 19*70 = (10 + 9)*70 = 10*70 + 9*70 = 700 + 630 = 1330, but that is much more complicated.
