4 AISS PRELIM/4E/4049/01/2023 2 The Richter scale measures the intensity of an earthquake using the formula 0 lg IM I = , where M is the magnitude of the earthquake, I is the intensity of the earthquake, and 0I is the intensity of the smallest earthquake that can be measured. (a) Calculate the magnitude of an earthquake if its intensity is 1000 times the intensity of the smallest earthquake that can be measured. [1] (b) In February 2011, an earthquake with magnitude 6.2 was recorded in Christchurch, New Zealand. Few weeks later, an earthquake with magnitude 9.0 was detected in Fukushima, Japan. How many times stronger in intensity was the Japan’s earthquake as compared to the New Zealand’s earthquake? Give your answer to 2 decimal places. [3]

Water is poured into the bowl and at any time t seconds, the height of the water level from the lowest point of the hemisphere is h cm. The rate of change of the height of the water level is 0.4 cm/s. (a) Show that the area of the water surface, A, is given by ( )24A h h=− . [2] (b) Find the rate of change of A when h = 5 cm. Leave your answer in terms of . [3]
