The Richter magnitude scale (often shortened to Richter scale) was developed to assign a single number to quantify the energy that is released during an earthquake. An earthquake (also known as a quake, tremor or temblor) is the result of a sudden release of energy in the Earth’s crust that creates seismic waves.

The North rop Grumman B-2 Spirit also known as the stealth technology designed for penetrating dense antiaircraft defenses. It is able to deploy both conventional and nuclear weapons.

Metals are electropositive elements because they tend to lose electrons easily. In chemical reactions, metals readily give away their outer electrons to form positive ions, making them good conductors of electricity and heat. This electron loss leads to the formation of cations, which contribute to the electropositive nature of metals.
