Directions: Identify what is asked or described in each item then encircle the letter of the correct
answer.
1.
What is the magnitude and intensity of an earthquake in Digos?
a.
b.
c.
d.
Magnitude VII , intensity 6.4
Magnitude V , intensity 6.4
Magnitude 6.4, intensity VII
Magnitude 6.4, intensity V
2. Which of the following is TRUE about the relationship of intensity of an earthquake and distance
from the epicenter?
a. The intensity decreases as the distance from the epicenter becomes greater.
b. The intensity increases as the distance from the epicenter becomes greater.
c. The intensity remains the same as the distance from the epicenter becomes greater.
d. The intensity doubles as the distance from the epicenter becomes greater.
3. Intensity : Damage :: Magnitude : _________
a. Wave
b. Amplitude
c. Energy
d. Force
4. What happens to the magnitude and intensity as measured farther from the epicenter?
a. Magnitude increases while intensity decreases
b. Magnitude decreases while intensity increases
c. Magnitude increases while intensity remains constant
d. Magnitude remains the same while intensity decreases
5. What is the difference between intensity II and magnitude 2 of an earthquake?
a. Intensity II tells that the earthquake is a micro-earthquake while, magnitude 2 tells that
it is slightly felt by people.
b. Intensity II tells that it is slightly felt by people while, magnitude 2 tells that the earthquake
is a micro-earthquake.
c. Intensity II suggest that the earthquake releases low energy while, magnitude 2 suggest
that it is a weak earthquake.
d. Intensity II suggest that the earthquake releases high energy while, magnitude 2 suggest
that it is scarcely perceptible earthquake.
