The Richter scale measures the magnitude, M, of an earthquake as a function of its intensity, I, and the intensity of a reference earthquake,
I_(0).
M = log (I/I_(0))
Which equation could be used to find the intensity of an earthquake with a Richter scale magnitude of 4.8 in reference to an earthquake with an intensity of 1?

The Richter scale measures the magnitude M of an earthquake as a function of its intensity I and the intensity of a reference earthquake I0 M log II0 Which equa class=
