उत्तर

The range of the Richter scale, which measures the magnitude (energy released at the epicenter) of an earthquake, is from 1 to 10. It expresses magnitude in whole numbers and decimal fractions. Each whole number increase on the richter scale corresponds to a tenfold increase in amplitude and about 31 times more energy released.
