What is Earthquake Intensity and Magnitude Analysis about?

This document discusses earthquakes and how they are measured. It explains that earthquakes occur when tectonic plates release stress from movement. They can be measured by intensity, using scales like the Modified Mercalli scale, or by magnitude, which measures the energy released. Intensity describes the effects on structures and humans in a location, while magnitude represents the overall energy of an earthquake measured seismographically. The relationship between intensity and magnitude is explored, fin
