If you have a Richter magnitude of 5.0 how much bigger would 6.0 be a 7.0?

This is really an answer but we dont use the ricter scale to record earthquakes because it didn't work well.. we use the M.M.S (Moment Magnitude Scale) To record earthquakes.. ----


What are the four devices used to detect a possible earthquake?

The four devices commonly used to detect a possible earthquake are seismometers, accelerometers, tiltmeters, and GPS receivers. Seismometers measure the ground motion caused by seismic waves, accelerometers measure the acceleration of ground shaking, tiltmeters measure changes in the tilt of the ground surface, and GPS receivers measure precise ground displacements. These devices work together to provide valuable information for earthquake detection and monitoring.


Where did Charles Richter work?

Why wouldn't a seismograph work if the pen vibrated with the machine?

because if the pen vibrated then the seismograph wouldn't work and it would defeat the purpose. the machine only works if the pen is still. if the pen is still the machine will guide it by the heartbeat lines the pen creates.

Scientists don't know the Richter scale for earthquakes that happened before seismometers were invented but they can work out mercalli numbers for these earthquakes why is this?

They can calculate intensity based on how the earthquake was felt at different places and what damage occurred from old newspaper reports and other historic documents.


What is a seismograph who invented it and what are the functions?

A seismograph is an instrument used for recording the intensity and duration of an earthquake/tremor.This device is not only used for earthquakes but also for other seismic events. For example monitoring the vibrations produced during construction work and during blasting in the mining and quarrying industries.The seismograph was invented by John Milne who was an English seismologist and geologist.


How does the siesmograph work?

A seismograph operates on the movement of the ground during an earthquake. It is sensitive enough to record the movement of a truck nearby.
