What tools do seismologists use?
Seisometers are used to measure how much the ground moves, but the only real way to detect them is to look at previous records as to how long it has been since an earthquake; if it a long time, an earthquake could happen soon.
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.
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 is the difference between seismograph and tsunami?
A seismograph is an instrument used to measure seismic waves in the earth's crust. In other words a seismograph detects earthquakes. A tsunami occurs when there is an earthquake at sea. The earthquake causes colossal tidal waves to form and the waves crash onto shore. This is a tsunami.
What scale does PAGASA used to measure the intensity of an earthquake?
PAGASA used richter scale to measure the intensity of an earthquake
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 do you call an instrument used to detect and record earthquakes?
Seismometer (or seismograph) and it measure seismic waves

A seismograph is an instrument used to measure movement of earthquake. It measures the seismic waves of that area.
What are seismographs used for?
A seismograph is used to detect vibrations and motions in the Earth's crust. These tremors are usually due to friction between tectonic plates (earthquakes) or huge powerful volcanic activity. - hope that helps
Where was the earthquake and how much damage did it do?
There are a bunch of little earthquakes every minute. We don't even feel them! They don't cause any damage. The only way we know about these earthquakes is because seismographs (instruments used to detect seismic waves) detect the waves underground.
What is used to measure the strength of a earthquake?
The Seismograph is used to measure the Magnitude of an earthquake.
What is seismography?
Used to measure earthquake activity with sound waves.
What is the difference between seismograph and tsunami?
A seismograph is an instrument used to measure seismic waves in the earth's crust. In other words a seismograph detects earthquakes. A tsunami occurs when there is an earthquake at sea. The earthquake causes colossal tidal waves to form and the waves crash onto shore. This is a tsunami.
What is the scale to measure earthquake?
Seismometers are used to measure earthquakes waves, this help show the different arrival time between waves. A Richter Scale is used to measure earthquakes strengh, each number is 31 times more powerful than the last. There is no official set number, but no earthquake has hit 10 on the scale.
What machine is used to measure sound waves?
what machine can be used to measure sound waves
