Answer: Earthquake refers to the sudden shaking of the earth due to the release of energy by the seismic ways in the earth's interior. An earthquake of magnitude 2 is exactly ten times bigger, as well as about 31-33 times stronger than that of magnitude 1 .

Richter scale is used to measure magnitude of an earthquake, that means how much energy has been released due to the release of seismic waves.
