Name the scale on which the destructive energy of an earthquake is measured. An earthquake measures 3 on this scale. Would it be recorded by a seismograph? Is it likely to cause much damage?

The destructive energy of an earthquake is measured on Richter scale. This scale has the readings from 1 to 10. An earthquake measuring 3 on Richter scale would be recorded by a seismograph. However, earthquakes of this magnitude are not likely to cause significant damage.
