1. Wind strength and duration
2. Fetch of the wave
The wave of an earthquake, known as seismic waves, travel through the Earth's crust and cause the ground to shake. These waves can result in damage to buildings, infrastructure, and the environment. They are key to understanding the intensity and impact of an earthquake.
Haiti experienced a devastating earthquake on August 14, 2021. The earthquake resulted in significant loss of life and widespread destruction in the region.
The Richter scale determines earthquake magnitude by measuring how much the ground moves, and the Modified Mercalli Intensity Scale determines earthquake intensity based on damage to buildings and effects on humans.
The city closest to the recent earthquake that hit Japan was Fukushima. The earthquake had a magnitude of 7.3 and its epicenter was off the coast of Fukushima prefecture, causing strong shaking in the region.
The 2011 earthquake in Tohoku, Japan measured at a Mercalli intensity of VII (Very strong). The Earthquake had a magnitude of 9.0 and led to widespread damage and casualties.
by mercalli scale.
it depends how strong the earthquake is
it depends how strong the earthquake is some can be stronger than a volcano or than a volcano can be really strong
Earthquake intensity varies. Some are so minor that they can only be felt at the epicenter. Earthquake shock waves radiate etc
An earthquake

AN EARTHquake first reaches a place that is focus strong earthquakes are in the epicentre but this is not the place from where earthquake originates i.e focus
If the earthquake is strong, then it will rock the other tectonic plates around it
