According to the LA Times news report, a moderate magnitude 3.6 earthquake centered near the Granada Hills neighborhood occured on Jan 22, 2020. Use scientific notation in your final results to a) Refer to the Mercalli scale above to identify the intensity level, shaking and description/damage of the earthquake. b) Draw a cross sectional sketch of the earth identifying the FOCUS and epicenter of the earthquake. c) Determine the amount of energy released in ergs and d) Joules.
What is the effect of density to thickness ratio of the concrete wall shield on activity?
If the time difference between the arrival of P-waves and the arrival of S-waves is 60, approximately how far are you from the epicenter of the earthquake?
An earthquake of magnitude 8 on the Richter scale is twice as intense as an earthquake of magnitude 4.Determine whether the statement makes sense or does not make sense, and explain your reasoning.
The Richter scale measures seismic activity. Other measures of quake strength include the energy released by quakes. One of these other measures is given by the equation. Using this measure, find the relative strengths of the Chilean and the Haitian earthquakes. additonal info: Chile earthquake is 8.8 on the richter scale Haiti earthquake is 7 on the richter scale
According to the infographic above a recent magnitude 5.4 Earthquake was recorded. Earthquakes represent a release of energy as a result of the earth's tectonic plates. a) Determine the amount of energy release in ergs. b) Determine the energy release in Joules. ( Hint use the earthquake formula M = 2/3 log (E/ 10^11.8); where M is the earthquake magnitude and E is the energy of the earthquake in ergs (recall 1 erg = 10^-7 Joules)). c) Using the earthquake magnitude scale below to qualitatively categorize (was it Minor, Light, Moderate, Strong, Major or Great) and describe the earthquake (what kind of damage is expected from a magnitude 5.4 earthquake).
