.A major media outlet uses the Richter Magnitude Scale to report the size of earthquakes. The Richter Scale uses a number between 1 and 10 to signify the relative power of an earthquake. The scale is logarithmic, in that the magnitude of the earthquakes increases exponentially by a multiple of 10 with each single-digit increase in the scale.For instance, and earthquake that is a 3 on the Richter Scale will be 10 times as powerful as one that is a 2. In a recent earthquake, the initial earthquake measured a 7 on the Richter Scale. It had an aftershock that was a 5 on the Richter Scale. How much more powerful was the initial earthquake compared to the aftershock?
