You use a seismograph to measure the strength of an earthquake.
the strengh of an earthquake is measured in magnitude
A seismometer is an instrument used to measure an earthquake's strength.
The magnitude of an earthquake is the amount of energy released at the source of the earthquake and is measured by a seismograph. Intensity is shaking strength of an earthquake at a particular location.
Magnitude is another term for the strength of an earthquake.
Magnitude.
Richter scale measures the magnitude of earthquakes.
Earthquake intensity is measured using the modified Mercalli scale or the macroseismic scale. Their values are derived based on eye witness accounts of the violence of the shaking of the ground, the damage done to buildings and other structures and based on ground surface accelerations measured by seismometers.
The strength of an earthquake is measured on the Richter scale. The Richter scale is logarithmic, meaning that if the earthquake's strength increases by 1 on the Richter scale, it is 10 times more powerful, e.g. an earthquake measuring 5.0 is 10x more powerful than an earthquake measuring 4.0. The strength of an earthquake is measured using a seismograph which measures the vibrations in the ground.
The strength of earthquakes are measured by the Richter Scale. It is a base 10, logarithmic scale that measures the amplitude of the waves caused by an earthquake.
The magnitude of an earthquake is the amount of energy released at the source of the earthquake and is measured by a seismograph. Intensity is shaking strength of an earthquake at a particular location.
Earthquakes are measured using a seismograph. There is no exact science to predicting an earthquake. Scientists can only project the possibility of an earthquake occurring. This is based on measured seismic activity within a specific concentrated zone.
the Richter scale is used to measure the power, strength of an earthquake
Magnitude is another term for the strength of an earthquake.
Earthquake strength is measured using a magnitude scale. For small to moderate strength Earthquakes (< magnitude 7) the Richter scale is used. For Earthquakes between 7 and 8 the body and surface magnitude scales are used and for earthquakes larger than 8, the moment magnitude scale is used.

The magnitude of an earthquake is measured with a seismograph and the readout is measured using the Richter scale - See Sources and related links for more information.
A seismogram traces the earthquakes motion that is created by the seismograph and the seismograph records vibrations in the ground and determines the location and strength of an earthquake.
