You could use the information from part A to get B. I'm not sure if you want A or not, so I'll do it as well.
A
Eo = 10^4.4 Joules
E = 2 * 10^15
Formula
M = (2/3) log (E/Eo)
M = 2/3 * log (2 * 10^15/10^(4.4) )
M = 2/3 * log( 7.9621* 10^10)
M = 2/3 * 10.901
M = 7.26735 on the Richter scale. That is a huge amount of energy.
Part B
Suppose that you use Eo and your base. Eo is 10^4.4
Now the new earthquake is E = 10000 * Eo
So what you get now is M = (2/3)* Log(10000 * Eo / Eo )
The Eo's cancel out.
M = 2/3 * log(10000)
M = 2/3 of 4
M = 8/3
M = 2.6667 difference in the Richter Scale Reading. It is still an awful lot of energy.
What this tells you is that if the original reading was (say) 6 then the 10000 times bigger reading would 8.266667
Answer: M = 2.6667
Answer:
0.73 is greater than 8/11 so the answer is B
Step-by-step explanation:
if you make 8/11 into a decimal its 0.727273 which is less than 0.73
Hello! The first thing to do is to find the amount of change by subtracting both numbers. 2.60 - 0.25 is 2.35. Now, we set up a proportion by doing change/original = x/100. With the values plugged in, it would be written like this: 2.35/0.25 = x/100. Cross multiply the values in the proportion. When you do, you get 235 = 0.25x. Now, divide each side by 0.25 to isolate the "x". When you do that, x = 940. The price of gas has gone up 940% since 1930.
