A seismogram is a recording of ground motion at a particular ground location, as collected by a seismometer. Multiple seismograms, taken from different locations, can be analyzed to determine the magnitude, depth and location of an earthquake.
Seismograms used to be recorded on paper by seismograph machines, but virtually all seismograms are recorded digitally, today, since computers are essential to accurately process the simultaneous readings from hundreds of seismometers.
A seismometer is a device that measures the vibrations made be earthquakes. (seismic waves) Seismic waves consist of P(primary) waves LONGITUDIUAL think of them as "PUSH AND PULL" waves because they move buildings up or down. The other wave is the s(seconday) waves TRANVERSE think of them as "SHAKE TO SIDE" waves because they shake buildings from side to side.
Both waves are very dangerous and can do a lot of damage and a seismometer detects this.
I hope this helped!
A seismometer is a device which measures the amplitude and frequency of seismic waves and also the acceleration of the ground surface during an earthquake.
A seismometre is what is used to record the amount of seismic energy that is realised in an earthquake
Seismometers are instruments that measure and record motions of the ground, including those of seismic waves generated by earthquakes, nuclear explosions, and other seismic sources
seismos in greek is earthquake. Seismograph is an instrument which shows you the seismic waves and generally motions of the ground.
a tracing of earthquake motion creates by a seismogram
A seismograph is an instrument that detects earthquakes. The earliest seismograph was invented in China by a man named Choko in the year 136 CE.
It tells you how strong a earthquake is.
A desire to record the occurrence and measure of earthquakes.
Assuming you mean 'seismogram' - it's a printout from a seismometer... which is an instrument that measures earthquakes.
Sentence: A Seismograph is a machine used to measure the severity of earthquakes.
A seismometer (or the older device called a seismograph) records the seismic waves from earth tremors.+++There is a difference there: a seismometer would simply register instant vibration; a seismograph records the vibrations with time so shows the whole picture.
1. Waves of energy that travel through the Earth. 2. Result of an earthquake, explosion, or a volcano that imparts low-frequency acoustic energy. 3. Seismic waves are studied by geophysicists called seismologists. 4. Recorded by a seismometer, hydrophone (in water), or accelerometer. 5. Types of seismic waves: body wave, surface waves S waves and P waves. 6. Scientists have used indirect measurements and seismic waves from earthquakes to determine the internal structure of the Earth. 7. Scientists have seismographs set up all over the world to track movement of the Earth's crust. 8. Surface waves travel along the surface of the earth. 9. Typically the most destructive type during an earthquake. 10. Seismic waves are not always detectable by seismometers.
Seismometer was created in 1880.
A seismometer (the term seismograph may be used to describe a seismometer combined with an instrument for recording and displaying the amplitude and frequency of the seismic waves that the seismometer measures). Please see the related link.
The seismometer measures how bad and earthquake is and a Richter Scale measures hoe bad a hurricane is.
The seismometer is the 'odd one out'. The other instruments measure factors to do with weather (wind speed, air pressure & temperature) - the seismometer measures movements in the Earth's crust.
