Who invented the siesmograph?
John Milne invented the seismograph in 1880
What instrument is anchored to the ground and records the earths movements?
siesmograph
How are earthquake patterns used to provide evidence of sea floor spreading?
By using a siesmograph.
What for a Seismograph is used?
a siesmograph is a graph that tells the power of an earthquake. it uasually takes track from the last earthquake and now it trys to find out what the next earthquakes power would be like and to try to see when it may occur sometimes it could be accured or not but that is a seidmograph.
Who first used the siesmograph work?

What jobs use a siesmograph?
Why, a seismographer of course! Seriously though... Anyone who studies, or monitors for, earthquakes, volcanoes, & other such phenomena would use one.
What is the second type of wave to reach a siesmograph?
That would be a secondary, or 'S' wave. Moving in a snakelike movement, this wave has to travel a farther distance, so it takes longer to reach the recording equipment.
What is the difference between a siesmic wave and a seismograph?
a siesmic wave is a wave that travels through the earth. there are two MAIN types, P and S waves. a siesmograph shows the type of wave and how far away it is from that point.
