The Richter Scale
The Richter scale is a magnitude scale - it measures the amount of energy released by an earthquake. As such tit is a way of quantifying earthquake magnitude and comparing it to other earthquakes.
No. The Richter's scale measures the magnitude or intensity of an earthquake on a scale up to ten.
