Logarithmic Scales - Measured Value (Number) to Magnitude

Level 1

The math topic focuses on applying logarithmic scales to calculate magnitudes in different contexts such as pH levels, decibel levels, and Richter scale magnitudes from given measured values. Problems involve computing the pH of solutions based on hydrogen ion concentrations, determining the decibel (dB) level from sound energy measurements, and calculating earthquake magnitudes on the Richter scale from seismic wave measurements. Each problem gives a scenario with specific data and asks for the associated logarithmic magnitude.
