What monitoring device measures vertical movement of an earthquake?
A seismograph is an instrument used to measure movement of earthquake. It measures the seismic waves of that area.
What does a seismograph measure measure?
A seismograph measures the vibrations made when earth layers "move", such as the waves of movement during an earthquake.Frequency and amplitude of seismic waves.
Which seismic wave arrives last at a seismograph station?
The first waves to arrive at a seismograph station are primary waves, or P waves.
What device is used to record seismic waves?
Seismic waves are measured by seismographs, geophones, hydrophones and accelerometers.
What waves are the first to reach a seismograph after an earthquake?
Primary waves
What is the instrument called that detects seismic waves?
A seismometer or seismograph
What is an instrument used to measure and record ground movements during an earthquake?
earthquakes are measured by seismic waves so scientists use a seismograph. there are a bunch of seismographs at a station and each one records the same stuff according to the p, s, and surface waves.
What monitoring device measures vertical movement of an earthquake?
A seismograph is an instrument used to measure movement of earthquake. It measures the seismic waves of that area.
What records the ground movements caused by seismic waves?
It's called a seismograph. I just finished learning about that in Science class.
The trace that records an earthquake from seismic instruments is called a?
the ground movement caused by seismic waves
What tool is used to measure an earthquake?
Scientists use a recording instrument called a seismograph to detect ground motions caused by seismic waves from earthquakes.
What does a seismograph measure measure?
A seismograph measures the vibrations made when earth layers "move", such as the waves of movement during an earthquake.Frequency and amplitude of seismic waves.
What is a seismograph answer?
Humorous answer: A seismograph never answers; it just waves.
Which seismic wave arrives last at a seismograph station?
The first waves to arrive at a seismograph station are primary waves, or P waves.
What is the movement caused by the sudden shift of of the earths plates called?
Are they not called fissures RESPONSE TO: Are they not called fissures They are so not called fissures. Fissures are way different from what the question is. Now think, what type of movement do you feel when an earthquake happens. Of course, SHAKING.
What are the largest waves on a seismograph?
S waves or P waves
What are the largest waves on the seismograph?
S waves or P waves
