Challenge Problems
Push your limits with challenges.
Question 1
If an earthquake has a Body Wave Magnitude of 6.0 measured far from the source, but close stations report Surface Wave Magnitude of 7.0. Discuss how the different scales help in understanding the event.
💡 Hint: Think about the range and applications of each scale.
Question 2
Design a theoretical scenario where an earthquake measures differently across various magnitude scales. What implications would this have for emergency plans?
💡 Hint: Focus on planning for the most damaging effects.
