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.
The amplitude is about +35 to +40 Millivolts I believe this is incorrect, as this would only raise the resting membrane potential from -70mV to -35 or -40. An action potential needs to raise the membrane potential from -70 mV to +30 mV, so the amplitude needs to be 100 mV.
Every change of 1 on the Richter scale increases the amplitude of the measured seismic waves of the earthquake by a factor of 10 and the energy released scales with the shaking amplitude based on the following: Change in energy released = (10^Md)^(3/2) Where Md = difference in magnitude between two earthquakes (in the example above this is 3.0) Therefore a magnitude 6.0 earthquake releases (10^3.0)^(3/2) = 31,622 times more nergy than a magnitude 3.0 earthquake and has seismic waves with 1000 times larger amplitude.
The main difference is brightness: a twelfth magnitude star is brighter than a fifteenth magnitude star. Magnitude is a logarithmic scale, so each step in magnitude represents a difference in brightness of about 2.5 times. This means a twelfth magnitude star is approximately 12.5 times brighter than a fifteenth magnitude star.
The Richter scale is logarithmic, meaning each whole number increase on the scale represents a tenfold increase in measured amplitude and approximately 31.6 times more energy release. Therefore, a 6.5 magnitude earthquake releases about 31.6 times more energy than a 5.5 magnitude earthquake. This means that the energy difference between the two magnitudes is roughly 31.6 times greater for the 6.5 magnitude earthquake.
The Richter magnitude scale is a base-10 logarithmic scale of the shaking amplitude. This means that a difference of 1 in the scale is equivalent to a 10-fold increase in amplitude. So the difference in amplitude between a mag 8 and a mag 4 earthquake is 104.
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.
Amplitude in data communication refers to the size or magnitude of a signal. It represents the strength or intensity of the signal, typically measured as the difference between the peak and trough of a waveform. In analog transmission, amplitude modulation (AM) alters the amplitude of a carrier wave to encode information.
* The term peak amplitude, often shortened to amplitude, is the nonnegative value of the waveform's peak (either positive or negative). * The instantaneous amplitude of is the value of (either positive or negative) at time . * The instantaneous magnitude, or simply magnitude, of is nonnegative and is given by . ALSO Amplitude is the maximum displacement from equilibrium in a sinusoidal wave.Magnitude is just the value of something; typically refering to scalar quantities.
Ever magnitude goes up by a multiple of 10. So lets say this.. 1-10 2-100 3-1000 4-10000 5-100000 6-1000000 7-10000000 So, a 5 magnitude earthquake is 100 times more powerful then a 3 magnitude.
The amplitude is about +35 to +40 Millivolts I believe this is incorrect, as this would only raise the resting membrane potential from -70mV to -35 or -40. An action potential needs to raise the membrane potential from -70 mV to +30 mV, so the amplitude needs to be 100 mV.

Low pitch refers to the perceived frequency of a sound wave, while high pitch refers to a higher frequency. Amplitude, on the other hand, is the magnitude or intensity of a sound wave. A sound with high amplitude will be louder than one with low amplitude.
No difference only magnitude
What is the difference between the contour and magnitude of single nerve fiber and nerve trunk?
The energy output of a magnitude 6 earthquake is approximately 32 times greater than that of a magnitude 5 earthquake. Magnitude scales such as the Richter scale are logarithmic, so each whole number increase represents a tenfold increase in amplitude and approximately 32 times more energy release.
