Earthquake magnitude is a measure of the total energy released by the movement (the energy released at the source of the event). This is not directly related to wave intensity at a location away from the origin. It is related, but only partially so. Having low intensity shaking from a moderate earthquake can happen as can high intensity shaking elsewhere, from the same earthquake and even at locations not separated by great distances. 
hope it helped you^^

<em><u>Answer:</u></em>

B) the acquisition of California and New Mexico.

<em><u>Explanation:</u></em>

The U.S.- Mexican War tremendously affected the historical backdrop of the two nations. For the United States, this was the country's first remote war battled for the most part on outside domain. It included different armed forces, long supply lines, a vast scale land and/or water capable arriving of troops, and it gave the main experience of involving an outside capital and setting up a military government for an outsider populace.

Mexico had lost around 33% of its region, including almost all of present-day California, Utah, Nevada, Arizona and New Mexico.
