Question
The magnitude, M, of an earthquake is represented by the equation M = log E where E is the amount of energy
released by the earthquake in joules and Eo = 10*4 is the assigned minimal measure released by an earthquake.
Which shows a valid step in the process of calculating the magnitude of an earthquake releasing 2.5 10 joules of energy?
Select the correct answer below:
O 2.5 - 1015 = log 1044
O 1044 = log 2.5-1
OM = log(9.95 - 10°)
OM = log(2.55 - 1010)
OM = log(9.95 - 100)
