because the seismograph is a machine or Thing that can feel and sometimes see and earthquake while humans cant because we dont have super hearing lik a seismograph does.
There have been many devastating earthquakes over the years. Some of the worst and most massive earthquakes have been the 1976 Tangshan earthquake that killed between 240,000 and 655,000 people. Another massive one was the 1556 Shaanxi earthquake which killed 830,000 people. The largest earthquake to be measured on a seismograph was the 1960 Chilean Earthquake which was a 9.5 magnitude.
Earthquake proof buildings are more expensive to build. Some people do not have the extra money.
yes, on both! As people were losing their homes from the earthquake they had no food so they had to hunt animals. Only some people had the energy to do that. And as for the plants, they were being destroyed by the earthquake, as were the trees.
there was alot of people died and some people are still under the biuldings
They weren't evacuated. Some are still living in tents.
Here are some sentences.Scientists use a seismograph to measure movement in the earth.The seismograph showed that an earthquake had occurred.
You can feel a earthquake when you can feel the floor start to vibrate. You can also feel it because you feel lots of pressure coming down on you,and your body can feel that. Some people even feel a earthquake from a mile away.
Some good questions about earthquakes are:What is an earthquake?How long do earthquakes last?Is there an 'earthquake season' or 'earthquake weather'?Where is the safest place to be in an earthquake?Will the ground open up during an earthquake?What is a seismometer, seismograph, and a seismogram?When was the seismograph invented?What is the Richter Scale?Do many small earthquakes prevent larger earthquakes?Can we predict earthquakes?What is liquefaction?
There are two instruments, which are basically the same thing. There is the seismograph , and a more specific tool measures the waves on what is called the Richter scale. Earthquakes are given a number from one to ten, ten being the strongest. The strongest earthquake that their ever was, was measured a 9.3.

the chinese used the seismograph the find out the direction of an earthquake. in the first model, there were some small marbles inside a jar. when the earthquake hit, a marble would fall out of the jar, and in the direction of the quake. the chinese belived earthquakes were a sign of future evils.
The scientific device used to detect earthquakes is a Seismograph. They're necessary for detecting small earthquakes and for determining their strength. An earthquake that's at least 2.0 on the Richter scale can be felt by some people, and a 3.0 can be felt by most people.

The same way you would feel if your home was destroyed and your friends and family were missing, injured or killed. Some people were really supportive, and some were just plain negative cold hearted. But me personally think its a tragic thing that's happened to them, even though i don't know anyone from there, there are lots of people who's relatives have died in that earthquake following a tsunami following an other earthquake.
A seismometer, sometimes known as a seismograph, in modern day is usually inertial an it has: 1) A weight of some kind, called the inertial mass, that moves inside but stays attached. 2) A recording device for the mass. Basically, the motion in the ground, even very slight, will move this weight and it is the movement of the weight which causes a reading on changes underground. Some modern systems now use electronics. Instead of a writing device for recording, it uses magnetic strips to record information. A seismograph records data from an earthquake with a needle and ink. When an earthquake occurs ts records this data and uses the needle with ink on it to show the highs and lows of the P waves, S waves, and surface waves the earthquake produces. The ink lines are recorded on graph paper showing the number of how high or low the earthquake's strength is and measures the waves.
