E Eo A formula for calculating the magnitude of an earthquake is M = log that uses the common (base 10) logarithm. This is called the Moment Magnitude Scale (MMS), an alternative to the more well known Richter Scale. One earthquake has magnitude 3.9 on the MMS. If a second earthquake has 750 times as much energy as the first, find the magnitude of the second quake. Round to the nearest hundredth. The magnitude of the second earthquake was Number
