Bigger earthquakes occur less frequently, but a bigger quake releases more energy and does more damage. an interesting question to ask about earthquakes (and about almost anything else! ) is whether the increase in energy release and damage done is larger or smaller than the decrease in frequency as one looks at bigger earthquakes. asked a different way, is most of the damage done by the many little earthquakes or by the few big earthquakes? a) most of the damage is done by the many, little earthquakes. b) earthquakes only damage coke machines, under an exclusive contract with pepsi. c) most of the damage is done by the few, big earthquakes. d) earthquakes don't do any damage, so this is a silly question. e) the drop-off in frequency just balances the rise in energy, so all earthquake sizes contribute equally to global earthquake damages

4.4 in a hypothetical seismically active region, earthquakes have been recorded over an 80-year period. part of the record is instrumental, but part is not. combining all available data, it appears that the earthquakes have been distributed as follows: moment magnitude / number of earthquakes 3-4 / 1800 4-5 / 150 5-6 / 11 > 6 / 1 (a) estimate the gutenberg-richter parameters for the region. (b) neglecting earthquakes of magnitude less than 3, compute the probability that an earthquake in the region will have a moment magnitude between 5.5 and 6.5, (c) repeat part (b) assuming that paleoseismic evidence indicates that the region is not capable of producing earthquakes of moment magnitude greater than 6.5 i am wondering how to complete part b? i see the solution here on chegg, but i do not understand where the writer came up with the equation?
