Which scale measures the amount of damage after an earthquake?
richter scale
mercalli intensity scale
moment magnitude scale
seismograph scale

Mercalli Intensity Scale:

is a seismic intensity scale used for measuring the intensity of an earthquake. ... It is distinct from the moment magnitude (Mw) usually reported for an earthquake, which is a measure of the energy released (sometimes misreported as the Richter magnitude, ML).

The correct answer is "Mercalli intensity scale".

Explanation:

Mercalli Intensity Scale: It is an effect of an earthquake on the surface of the earth. It depicts the shaking severity. It measures the amount of damage after an earthquake or It measures the destruction.

Richter scale: It describes the magnitude of the earthquake by measuring the seismic wave. It is the energy released by the an earthquake.

Therefore, Mercalli intensity scale measures the amount of damage after an earthquake.
