How do scientists find out about the inner core of earth?
A seismograph is used to sense seismic waves in the earth. The seismic waves are sent down by scientist and how fast and how straight the line is when the seismograph reads them is how they tell which mineral or if its a liquid or solid. Which is how they know about the inner and outter core, and the mantel.
How seismic studies support seafloor spreading?
Seismic studies show evidence of mid-ocean ridges where new oceanic crust is forming, supporting the theory of seafloor spreading. By analyzing seismic waves, scientists can map the structure of the ocean floor and identify areas of tectonic activity where plates are moving apart. Additionally, seismic data reveals the presence of magnetic striping on the seafloor, further supporting the idea of seafloor spreading.
What part of earths interior layers are in motion due to density differences?
The outer core is liquid and convects. The mantle also convects, although it is almost entirely solid and it is a matter of debate whether the entire mantle convects, or whether there are seperate layers each individually convecting.
How a seismograph looks like?
A seismograph typically consists of a drum or digital display connected to a sensing device that records ground vibrations caused by earthquakes. The sensing device, typically a pendulum or mass on a spring, produces a trace on the paper or screen to show the intensity and duration of the seismic waves. Modern seismographs can also use electronic sensors to capture seismic data digitally.
How Can seismic be used to determine an earthquake epicenter?
Like a polyghraph squiggles show the techtonic plates moving.
What does time-distance graph of seismic waves show?
Comparison of waves going through the solid inner core and those just skimming it can show the rotation of the inner core.
What is the instrument that records earthquakes waves?
A seismograph records earthquake waves.the correct answer is a seismometer a seismograph is the graph to show the recordings
How is seeismic waves measured?
Seismic waves are measured using seismometers, which detect the ground vibrations created by seismic events like earthquakes. Seismometers record the data in the form of seismograms, which show the amplitude and arrival times of different types of seismic waves such as P-waves and S-waves. By analyzing these seismograms, scientists can determine the characteristics of the seismic event and its location.
What ways do seismic waves show us what the interior is like?
very carfully
How can seismic waves be used to determine an earthquake's epicenter?
The epicenr can be found by location the sound in the waves carried.
How to read a seismograph and interpret seismic activity accurately?
To read a seismograph and interpret seismic activity accurately, first, understand that a seismograph records ground motion caused by earthquakes. Look at the seismograph's wavy lines, called seismograms, which show the intensity and duration of seismic waves. Identify the P-waves (primary waves) and S-waves (secondary waves) to determine the earthquake's location and magnitude. Compare the seismogram with data from other seismographs to confirm the earthquake's characteristics.
The shadow zone exists because?
sunlight blocks out S waves in certain regions.
Can you model a typical surface wave on the simulation?
I can simulate various types of surface waves, such as ocean waves or seismic waves, using numerical methods to model their behavior and propagation characteristics. The simulation can show how the wave moves and interacts with different types of surfaces or boundaries.
How a bar graph and a line graph alike?
they both show in crease but a line graph may show decrease
What does a graph not do?
A graph does not cook your meals when you are hungry! A graph does not show causation.
How would the seismograph for the two earthquake compare?
The seismograph for a larger earthquake would show stronger and more prolonged seismic waves compared to a smaller earthquake. The amplitude and duration of the seismic waves recorded by the seismograph would be greater for the larger earthquake.
Can you show me the timeline graph?
