![SOLVED: A formula for calculating the magnitude of an earthquake is M=2/3log(E/E0) that uses the common (base 10) logarithm. This is called the Moment Magnitude Scale (MMS), an alternative to the more SOLVED: A formula for calculating the magnitude of an earthquake is M=2/3log(E/E0) that uses the common (base 10) logarithm.
