ritcher scale

     

The Richter magnitue scale, or more correctly local magnitude ML scale, assigns a single number to quantify the amount of seismic energy released by an earthquake. It is a base-10 logarithmic scale obtained by calculating the logarithm of the combined horizontal amplitude of the largest displacement from zero on a Wood–Anderson torsion seismometer output. So, for example, an earthquake that measures 5.0 on the Richter scale has a shaking amplitude 10 times larger than one that measures 4.0. The effective limit of measurement for local magnitude is about ML = 6.8.

  • Even the ritcher scale cant calculate the magnitude "@sighgarette: about little earthquakes in my bones & the thought of you as epicenter”
  • The amount of Sugar Daddy potential I've seen walking round ldn today is off the ritcher scale
