The magnitude tells you how much damage has been caused by the earthquake, while the intensity tells you how much energy was released by the earthquake.

The answer is option B.

Magnitude is a measure of earthquake size and stays unchanged with distance from the earthquake. Depth, but, describes the degree of shaking caused by an earthquake at a given area and decreases with distance from the earthquake epicenter.

The severity of an earthquake may be expressed in terms of each depth and value.

Magnitude measures the strength released on the supply of the earthquake. Magnitude is determined from measurements on seismographs. Intensity measures the energy of shaking produced by means of an earthquake in a certain area. intensity is determined from outcomes on human beings, human systems, and the natural surroundings.

rjkz [21]

After World War II, The United States got heavily involved in the Middle East, mostly because of its political and economic interests.
