The correct answers are A) determined from the amplitude recorded by a single seismometer. C) represents the amount of energy released. D) uses a logarithmic scale.

The news media often report an earthquake's magnitude on the Richter scale. The following items are characteristics of a Richter earthquake magnitude: determined from the amplitude recorded by a single seismometer, represents the amount of energy released, and uses a logarithmic scale.

When measuring the scale of the magnitude of earthquakes, the Richter scale measures the scale od moderated size earthquakes. It was invented by two United States seismologists: Charles F. Richer and Beno Gutenberg. They developed the measure in California when they were researching from 1927 through 1936, in the Seismological Laboratory of the Carnegie Institution of Washington, in Pasadena, California.

Leviafan [203]

Answer:

robotic technology    

Explanation:

Innovation is nothing but the use of various things such as ideas, products, people to build up a solution for the benefit of the human. It can be any product or any solution which is new and can solve people's problems.

Innovation solution makes use of technology to provide and dispatch new solutions or services which is a combination of both technology and ideas.

One such example of an innovative solution we can see is the use of "Robots" in medical science or in any military operations or rescue operation.

Sometimes it is difficult for humans to do everything or go to everywhere. Thus scientist and engineers have developed many advance robots or machines using new ideas and technology to find solutions to these problems.

Using innovations and technologies, one can find solutions to many problems which is difficult for the peoples. Robots can be used in any surveillance operation or in places of radioactive surrounding where there is a danger of humans to get exposed to such threats. They are also used in medical sciences to operate and support the patient.
