Question

Name the scale on which the destructive energy of an earthquake is measured. An
earthquake measures 3 on this scale. Would it be recorded by a seismograph? Is it
likely to cause much damage?​

Answer 1

Earthquake is measured through seismograph

Answer 2

Answer:

Richter scale is used to measure the destructive energy of an earthquake. The scale has a reading from 1 to 10.

An earthquake measuring 3 would be recorded by a seismograph.

The magnitude of scale 3 would not cause much damage. An Earthquake of magnitude 5 is considered destructive in nature.
