The world's strongest earthquake struck Chile in 1960 and measured 9.5 on the Richter scale. The 2010 Chilean quake at 8.8 was the world's sixth largest. Find the ratio of the intensities of the 1960 earthquake to the 2010 earthquake. (Round your answer to two decimal place.)

The Richter scale is used to measure the intensity of earthquakes, where intensity corresponds to the amount of energy released by an earthquake. If an earthquake has an intensity of x, then its magnitude, as computed by the Richter scale, is given by the formula R(x) = log X where is the intensity of a small measurable earthquake. (a) An earthquake in city A had a magnitude of 4.0 the Richter scale and an earthquake in city B measured 5.0....

About how many times more intense is an earthquake that measures 8.4 on the Richter scale than an earthquake that measures 7.9 on the Richter scale? Recall that Richter defined the magnitude Rof an earthquake of intensity I to be R = log I. (Round your answer to two decimal places.)

The intensity levels I of two earthquakes measured on a seismograph can be compared by the formula log I1 I2 = M1 − M2 where M is the magnitude given by the Richter scale. An earthquake of magnitude 6.4 hit a city. Two years later, that same region experienced yet another, more devastating earthquake, this time with a magnitude of 9.0. How many times greater was the intensity of the second earthquake? Round to the nearest whole number. times greater

Question 3 (10 points) The Richter Scale gives a mathematical model for the magnitude of an earthquake in terms of the ratio of the amplitude of an earthquake wave (also known as the intensity of an earthquake) to the amplitude of the smallest detectable wave. If we denote the magnitude of the earthquake by R, the intensity (also known as the amplitude of the earthquake wave) of the earthquake by A, and the amplitude of the smallest detectable wave by...
