How is the magnitude of the earthquake related to the collapse of houses?

उत्तर
If the magnitude of an earthquake is high, it results in extensive destruction of buildings. The magnitude of an earthquake is directly related to the collapse of houses. Higher magnitude earthquakes release more energy, causing stronger seismic waves and more intense ground shaking, which increases the likelihood and severity of structural damage, including the collapse of houses.
