Magnitude is the unit of measurement used to describe the severity of an earth quake

<u>Explanation</u>:

Magnitude is the figure that relates to the amplitude of a given earthquake. The activity is most commonly measured with something called as a Richter scale and the most severe ones are over 7 magnitude. There will be thirty times greater energy when the magnitude goes up by one unit.

There are different formulas to determine the magnitude in different types of earthquakes. For eg, if an earthquake that occurred farther than 600km, a formula known as the body wave magnitude can be utilized.

Describe something that happened in the past that you didn't
Semenov [28]

Answer:

You need to find a memory of your own but, this is an example. You may use it if you would like!

When I was little my mom would not let me use my money on things such as giftcards for game becuase she said it was a waste of money. Now I am thankful she didn't let me because I have money save to use how I want because I am older.

I am now realizing that this is for geography but I have come up with an example for that too.  When I was younger I was sad because I wanted the Pangea to be together still but now I am glad it's not because the history that we have today would not be the same.

Hope this helped! :)
