The Mercalli intensity scale is a seismic scale used for measuring the intensity of an earthquake. It measures the effects of an earthquake, and is distinct from the moment magnitude M w {\displaystyle M_{w}} usually reported for an earthquake (sometimes misreported as the Richter magnitude), which is a measure of the energy released. The intensity of an earthquake is not entirely determined by its magnitude.
The aftermath of an earthquake, Golcuk, Western Turkey. The power of an earthquake is measured using a seismometer. A seismometer detects the vibrations caused by an earthquake. It plots these vibrations on a seismograph. The strength, or magnitude, of an earthquake is measured using the Richter scale. The Richter scale is numbered 0-10. 1  Earthquakes measuring just one or two on the scale are very common and can happen everyday in places like San Francisco. 2  These earthquakes are so small that people cannot feel them, they can only be picked up by a seismometer.
