Challenge Problems
Push your limits with challenges.
Question 1
An earthquake of magnitude 8.0 occurs at a distance of 100 km. If the empirical constants are a=1.2, b=3, and c=0.4, calculate the expected intensity.
💡 Hint: Make sure to calculate the logarithm correctly.
Question 2
Describe how differing soil types might influence the empirical constants of the magnitude-intensity correlation in urban versus rural settings. Provide an example of each.
💡 Hint: Think about how buildings might behave under different soil conditions.
