Solution

The correct option is B Richter scale
Magnitude of earthquake is measured by Richter scale. A electroscope is an early scientific instrument that is used to detect the presence and magnitude of electric charge on a body. A seismograph is used to record of seismic waves caused by an earthquake, explosion, or other Earth-shaking phenomenon. Coulomb is the unit of electrical charge.
