What was can be used to predict earthquakes?
witchcraft
How do scientists predict earthquakes with a tiltmeter?
Tiltmeters use laser technology and GPS equipment to measure the slope of the ground level very accurately. If there is an abnormal, sudden tilt in the ground, there is a chance that an earthquake is on its way.
Do scientists use satellite data to predict earthquakes?
Yes, through the use of global positioning systemsscientists use satellite data to predict earthquakes.
When and where will earthquakes take place?
We can't predict when an earthquake will happen, however: Earthquakes happen when tectonic plates 'slip'.
Is a seismograph used to map faults monitor fault changes and predict earthquakes?
No!
Why do scientist want to be able to predict earthquakes?
Scientists want to be able to predict earthquakes to save peoples lives.
Can scientist predict large earthquakes?
Scientists are able to predict large earthquakes to a certain extent. With the use of certain statistical methods, many earthquakes are able to be predicted.
What are the disadvantages of seismographs?
They do not predict earthquakes.
What was can be used to predict earthquakes?

Why is it important for scientist to develop ways to predict earthquakes?
It is important for scientists to develop ways to predict earthquakes. By it they can measure when the next one would be.
Do scientist have the power to control or predict earthquakes?
Scientists have no power to control earthquakes, nor to specifically predict them, but a logical area that the earthquakes would take place is along the plates of the earths crust. (Their shifting leads to earthquakes)

How many earthquakes can there be in a year?
Nobody knows how many earthquakes can happen in a year because you cannot predict earthquakes. :)
