Question
How do: Magitude, Mercalli Scale, Richter Scale, Moment Magnitude Scale, and Surface wave look like? May I have the pictures?

Answer
Hi Vivian,

1) I am not sure what you mean by Magitude, did you mean Magnitude? and if so in what way?

As for the other items in your question, I am providing web links for you to go to and review:

2) www.abag.ca.gov/bayarea/eqmaps/doc/mmi.html
3) www.pgc.nrcan.gc.ca/seismo/eqinfo/richter.htm
4) www.vibrationdata.com/earthquakes/magnitude.html
5) www.kettering.edu/"drussel/demos/waves/wavemotion.html

good luck.
