The magnitude of an earthquake, measured on the Richter scale, is log 10 where / is the amplitude registered on a seismograph 100 km from the epicenter of the earthquake, and /, is the amplitude of a certain (small) size. Find the Richter scale rating for an amplitude of 100,000,000/,- .... The magnitude, R (measured on the Richter scale) is
