Answer:

The Richter scale measures the largest wiggle (amplitude) on the recording, but other magnitude scales measure different parts of the earthquake. The USGS currently reports earthquake magnitudes using the Moment Magnitude scale, though many other magnitudes are calculated for research and comparison purposes.

Answer:

To measure the magnitude of an earthquake, the American scientist Charles Richter developed a scale in 1935. Known as the <u>Richter scale</u>, it assigns a number based on the height of the waves on a seismogram (the visual output of a seismograph). Seismographs measure ground motion, including the energy released by an earthquake.

H e l p.. I have no idea what any of this is, what is the first step of the hydrogen fusion process
klasskru [66]
The answer to this question is the first choice. In the hydrogen fusion process, the first step involves the collision of two protons to emit an antielectron and a neutrino. Only the first choice of
                             1_1H + 1_1H →2_1H + e^+ + v + energy
reflects this process. A hydrogen ion with a mass of one and number protons of 1 means a proton.

What is the best way to avoid being run over by your own pwc or motorboat?
kobusy [5.1K]
Wear an ignition safety switch lanyard so you can turn it off. Most powerboats and PWCs come furnished by the maker with a crisis motor cut-off switch. This wellbeing gadget can stop the motor if the administrator tumbles off the PWC or out of the powerboat, or is generally tossed from the best possible working position.

What magnification will be produced by a lens of power –4.00 D (such as might be used to correct myopia) if an object is held 43
kiruha [24]

Answer:

The magnification is m  = 0.3674

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

  The  power of the lens is  P = -4.00 D(dioptre)

Generally  1 dioptre = 1 \ meter

  The object distance is u =  -43 \ cm the negative sign is because the distance is measured in the opposite direction of incident light (i.e away )

 Generally the focal length is mathematically represented as

          f = \frac{1}{P}  

   =>f = \frac{1}{4.00 }  

  =>  f = 0.25 \ m

converting to  cm  

 =>   f = 0.25 \ m = 0.25 * 100 = 25 \ cm

Generally from lens equation  we have that  

     \frac{1}{f} +\frac{1}{v} -\frac{1}{u}

=>  \frac{1}{25} +\frac{1}{v} -\frac{1}{-43}

=>   v =  -15.8 \ cm

Generally the magnification is mathematically represented as

      m  = \frac{v}{u}

=>    m  = \frac{- 15.8}{-43}

=>    m  = 0.3674
