okay 1st thing we have is this formula- \(Magnitude= log_{10}\left(\large \frac{I_1}{I_0}\right)\) \(I_0\) is constant and it denotes he intensity of 0 earthquake
yes ser
2nd- we write down important stuff \(M_e\) =magnitude of earthquake \(I_e\) = intensity of earthquake \(M_a\)=magnitude of aftershock \(I_a\) =intensity of aftershock
yes ser
3rd- we write down the info given to us- "intensity" of earthquake is 39 times the intensity of aftershock so- \(I_e = 39 \times I_a\)
yes ser
4th- for earthquake- \(M_e=log_{10}\left(\large \frac{I_e}{I_0}\right)\) we can write \(I_e\) as \(39 \times I_a\) so \(M_e=log_{10}\left(\large \frac{39 \times I_a}{I_0}\right)\) so \(10^{M_e}= \large \frac{39 \times I_a}{I_0}\) another equation which we can make is- for aftershock- \(M_a= log_{10}\left(\large \frac{I_a}{I_0}\right)\) \(10^{M_a}=\large \frac{I_a}{I_0}\)
brb reloading
yes ser
okay so now we have 2 equations 1- \(10^{M_e}= \large \frac{39 \times I_a}{I_0}\) and 2- \(10^{M_a}=\large \frac{I_a}{I_0}\) try to solve them to get \(M_a\)
yes ser
