A. density of liquid
B. humidity of air
C. velocity of wind
D. intensity of earthquakes
✅ The correct answer is option D.
Richter scale is used for measuring intensity of earthquakes. The Richter scale measures the maximum amplitude of seismic waves as they reach seismographs. This scale is expressed with a logarithmic scale. Thus, an earthquake measuring 7.0 on the Richter scale would be 10 times larger than an earthquake that measures 6.0.
