Question

what taiwan scale was used to determine the magnitude of the earthquake?
○ moment magnitude
○ seismographic anomaly scale
○ richter scale
○ earthquake intensity scale
○ cwa (central weather administration)

Explanation:

The Richter Scale is a well - known scale for measuring earthquake magnitudes and has been used in various regions including Taiwan in the past for earthquake magnitude determination. The Moment Magnitude scale is also used but the Richter Scale is a common answer for such general questions about traditional magnitude - measuring scales. The Seismographic Anomaly Scale is not a standard scale for earthquake magnitude. The Earthquake Intensity Scale measures the effects of an earthquake at a particular location, not the magnitude. CWA is an organization, not a magnitude - measuring scale.

Answer:

C. Richter Scale
