Terrible typhoons hit Tokyo like a wolverine gone wild. There were many sad and hurt people. The unmercyfull typhoons destroyed roads and homes. The horrible typhoons opened up the ground and there were huge earthquakes. The huge earthquakes shook Tokyo like a dog shaking water off its back. There were also landslides and flooding.
I know a little bit about the scale scientists use to measure earthquakes? I now they can measure 8.6. Can any one else tell me or share additinal information about the different scales scientists use?

I know that Scientists that study earthquakes use a Richter Scale to measure the power of the quake. The scales measure the power with numbers from 1 to 10, 1 being a small tremor and 10 being extremely destructive.
Do you know what causes an earthquake?

I know how some earthquakes are caused. It is becuse of the movement of the plates.There might also be because of a fault line.
