Three sites (L1, L2, L3) record earthquake magnitude and earthquake intensity for the same earthquake. L1 is located closest to the focus and L3 is farthest away. Where is the intensity greatest, and what happens to the earthquake magnitude calculated at the different sites?

Three sites (L1, L2, L3) record earthquake magnitude and earthquake intensity for the same earthquake. L1 is located closest to the focus and L3 is farthest away. Where is the intensity greatest, and what happens to the earthquake magnitude calculated at the different sites?

  • Intensity is greatest at L1; calculated magnitude is the same at each site.
  • Intensity is greatest at L1; calculated magnitude decreases with distance from the focus.
  • Intensity is greatest at L3; calculated magnitude is the same for each site.
  • Intensity is greatest at L3; calculated magnitude decreases with distance from the focus.
