No, P-waves and S-waves are used to measure seismic events under the Earth's surface.
A seismograph is an instrument used to measure movement of earthquake. It measures the seismic waves of that area.
how is the transfer of energy as seismic waves related to frequency and magnitude of earthquakes in a region
The Richter Scale, which reads the movement and level (magnitude) of an earthquake.
Intensity
Magnitude scales are used to assess the amoiunt of energy relaed by an earthquake. For small and medium strength earthquakes (less than magnitude 7.0) the Richter scale is used. For larger earthquakes than this, the moment magnitude scale is used.
the moment magnitude scale is used to measure earthquake magnitude-taking into account the size of the fault rupture, the rocks stiffness,and the amount of the movement of the fault- using values that can be estimated from the size of several types of seismic waves. while a Richter scale is a numerical scale used to measure the magnitude of an earthquake, using values based on the size of the earthquakes largest seismic waves.
magnitudea measure of the amount of the energy released by earthquake . earthquake is measure through Ricthter scale that measure the magnitude of seismic waves that it has

Moment Magnitude is an earthquake measure that calculates energy during an eruption. It is based on the seismic movement which equals the Earth's rigidity which is then multiplied by the average slip on the fault and the size of the slipped area.

A seismograph is a device that scientists use to measure earthquake severity. It also determine the origination of the tremor and magnitude.
they are not related to magnitude. seismic waves are related to my great aunt paula but not magnitude
An earthquake's magnitude is a measure of its strength.
Those devices are called Seismometer's. They are used to measure seismic shockwaves ( earthquake's)
A seismograph is an instrument used to measure movement of earthquake. It measures the seismic waves of that area.
The Richter scale assigns a magnitude number to an earthquake based on the maximum amplitude of the seismic waves as recorded on a seismometer and the distance of the seismometer station from the epicentre of the earthquake.
