Question

what is Richter scale?Why do we say that it is not linear?​

Answer 1

Answer:

Richter scale is a device which is used to measure the intensity of an earthquake. On this scale the vibration of an earthquake with a magnitude of 2 are 10 times greater in amplitude than those of an earthquake with magnitude of 1, this is the reason, why the Richter scale is not considered as a linear scale

Answer 2

HERE IS YOUR ANSWER MATE:-

Richter scale also known as Richter magnitude scale is used for measuring the strength of Earthquake refers to the original magnitude scale.On this scale the vibration of an earthquake with a magnitude 2 are 10 times greater than in amplitude than those of Earthquake with magnitude of 1,that is why we don't consider it as a linear scale.
