Answer 2

Answer:

The “Richter scale” is the standard scale which is used for comparing earthquakes.  

Explanation:

• The measurement of earthquakes involves two main scales: “The Richter scale” and “The Mercalli scale”.
• The scale of Richter is most prevalent in the U.S., while researchers globally depend on the scale of Mercalli.
• These scales are used by some seismologists to identify the magnitude of the earthquake.

• There is no fixed low limit value and no maximum value for earthquakes on the Richter scale. This scale has logarithm values.
