It turns out that there’s a specific formula that they use to calculate the magnitude of an earthquake, which is a measure of its energy and intensity. In this article, we’ll take a closer look at how earthquake magnitude is calculated and explore the different factors that can affect it. The Richter scale is the most commonly used scale for measuring earthquake magnitude and was developed by Charles Francis Richter in 1935.
