A. This scale measures seismic waves based on their size.
B. This scale rates an earthquake according to how much damage it causes.
C.This scale produces a single rating for earthquakes that reach the surface.
D. This scale uses Roman numerals to rank the damage caused by an earthquake.
E.This scale measures the magnitude of an earthquake based on the size of seismic waves.
<h3><u>
Answer:</u></h3>
The Mercalli scale : This scale rates an earthquake according to how much damage it causes and This scale uses Roman numerals to rank the damage caused by an earthquake.
<h3><u>
Explanation:</u></h3>
The Modified Mercalli scale is intended to illustrate the consequences of an earthquake, at a contracted station, on tangible characteristics, on modern fittings and human beings.
The Modified Mercalli Intensity value ascribed to a particular site subsequent an earthquake has an extra significant means of severity to the nonscientist than the magnitude because intensity assigns to the outcomes really encountered at that position. This scale is comprised of 12 growing levels of intensity, denoted by Roman numerals, arranging from gradual shaking to catastrophic impairment.
Sea levels rise due to the melting of the glaciers, caused by Global Warming; More flooding due to the erosion of soil and lack of trees; Water shortage - we only have a limited supply of fresh drinking water; Disruption of the food chain when the apex predators become extinct; Biodiversity is lost, as whole species of living things disappear due to deforestation; There will be a f<span>ood shortage as the lands become barren and the oceans become empty of fishes; Pollution will eventually become unmanageable and affect our health; Rising temperatures may be too much for all living things on the planet. </span>
Answer:
Explanation:
Newton's law of universal gravitation states that the force experimented by a satellite of mass m orbiting Mars, which has mass 
at a distance r will be:
where 
is the gravitational constant.
This force is the centripetal force the satellite experiments, so we can write:
Putting all together:
which means:
![r=\sqrt[3]{\frac{GM}{4\pi^2}T^2}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=r%3D%5Csqrt%5B3%5D%7B%5Cfrac%7BGM%7D%7B4%5Cpi%5E2%7DT%5E2%7D)
Which for our values is:
![r=\sqrt[3]{\frac{(6.67\times10^{-11}Nm^2/kg^2)(6.39\times10^{23} kg)}{4\pi^2}(1.026\times24\times60\times60s)^2}=20395282m=20395.3km](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=r%3D%5Csqrt%5B3%5D%7B%5Cfrac%7B%286.67%5Ctimes10%5E%7B-11%7DNm%5E2%2Fkg%5E2%29%286.39%5Ctimes10%5E%7B23%7D%20kg%29%7D%7B4%5Cpi%5E2%7D%281.026%5Ctimes24%5Ctimes60%5Ctimes60s%29%5E2%7D%3D20395282m%3D20395.3km)
Since this distance is measured from the center of Mars, to have the height above the Martian surface we need to substract the radius of Mars R=3389.5 km
, which leaves us with:
