There are several "scales" used for describing wind speed, but the most common may be the Beaufort Scale of wind speeds, in 12 steps from "Calm" to "Light Air", all the way to "hurricane". The Beaufort Scale isn't used to MEASURE wind speed, but to DESCRIBE it.
A spring scale is used to measure the weight of an object by the stretching of a spring. It is commonly used in schools, laboratories, and households to measure the force exerted by an object due to gravity.
No, nothing is used to measure the Richter scale. The Richter scale is used to measure the intensity of earthquakes.The Volcanic Explosivity Index (VEI) is used to provide a relative measure of the explosiveness of volcanic eruptions.
The tool that a person would use to measure out a pound is called a scale. A scale can be used to weigh people as well. Pounds are a form of measure used on the Imperial system.
The richter scale is used by scientists to measure the amount of energy release by an earthquake.
The scale used to measure the strength of an earthquake is called the Richter scale
Carats describe the weight of a stone. A jeweler can show you the scale used for this purpose.

A seismograph is used to measure ground movement or vibrations on the Richter scale.
There are two systems that measure earthquakes. The Richter scale measures the moment magnitude, and the Mercalli scale measures the intensity of an earthquake.
