2008 Market Rasen earthquake Caythorpe, all three in South Kesteven. The cost of insurance payouts was estimated to be around £30 million, with the majority of damage being done to chimneys, roof tiles and by falling masonry. The tremor was the largest earthquake to affect the UK since the 1984 Llŷn Peninsula earthquake, which measured 5.4 on the Richter scale. The British Geological Survey gave the earthquake a reading of 5.2M, while the United States Geological Survey reported it measured 4.8M. The French Atomic Energy Commission estimated the magnitude was 5.4M. A total of nine aftershocks were recorded. The largest, measuring 2.8 on the
Orders of magnitude (bit rate) Orders of magnitude (bit rate) An order of magnitude is generally a factor of ten. A quantity growing by four orders of magnitude implies it has grown by a factor of 10000 or 10. However, because computers are binary, orders of magnitude are sometimes given as powers of two. This article presents a list of multiples, sorted by orders of magnitude, for bit rates measured in bits per second. Since some bit rates may measured in other quantities of data or time (like MB/s), information to assist with converting to and from these formats is provided. This article assumes the
