On the Richter scale of earthquake intensity: Group of answer choices

Geography
1 answer:
tiny-mole [99]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

The ground is shaken 10 times less by a magnitude-4 quake than by a magnitude-5 quake.

Explanation:

The Richter scale is a system developed by American scientist Charles F. Ritcher to measure the magnitude of earthquakes according to the extent of waves detected by seismographs. In that respect, the larger the earthquake in the scale of Richter, the more damage it causes. Thus, a magnitude-5 earthquake makes the ground shake more and produces more considerable destruction than a magnitude-4 quake.

Oksi-84 [34.3K]

Answer:

- Lack of outlets for water to escape and relatively impermeable soil at the bottom of the lake.

Explanation:

Salinity is characterized as the 'quality of being salty or containing salt in a solution.' The geological factors that might assist in elaborating the salinity of The Dead Sea would include 'the absence of outlets allowing water to escape and comparatively resistant soil at the core of the lake.' It will help in explaining the high concentration of salt at the bottom of the sea which makes it one of the saltiest water bodies across the globe.
