a seismograph can find the severity of an earthquake by graphing the measures of distances and strength of an earthquake.
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.
"Shake, Rattle, and Roll". But seriously folks, it's called a "seismogram".
Used to measure earthquake activity with sound waves.
P-waves are the first seismic waves to arrive at a seismograph station.

A seismograph records earthquake waves.the correct answer is a seismometer a seismograph is the graph to show the recordings
The seismograph for a larger earthquake would show stronger and more prolonged seismic waves compared to a smaller earthquake. The amplitude and duration of the seismic waves recorded by the seismograph would be greater for the larger earthquake.
The primary waves (P-waves) are the first to reach a seismograph after an earthquake. These waves are faster than other seismic waves and can travel through both solid and liquid materials.
The fastest seismic waves, P-waves, will arrive first at a seismograph station after an earthquake. P-waves are compressional waves that can travel through both solids and liquids, allowing them to arrive at a station before the slower S-waves and surface waves.
Earthquake waves (seismic waves) are measured using a seismograph or seismometer.
To read a seismograph and interpret seismic activity accurately, first, understand that a seismograph records ground motion caused by earthquakes. Look at the seismograph's wavy lines, called seismograms, which show the intensity and duration of seismic waves. Identify the P-waves (primary waves) and S-waves (secondary waves) to determine the earthquake's location and magnitude. Compare the seismogram with data from other seismographs to confirm the earthquake's characteristics.
The seismograph station closest to the earthquake epicenter would have recorded P-waves first, followed by stations farther away. Since P-waves are the fastest seismic waves, they are the first to arrive at a seismograph station after an earthquake.
Surface waves, specifically Love waves and Rayleigh waves, typically show the highest amplitude on a seismograph during an earthquake. These waves travel along the Earth's surface and cause the most shaking and ground displacement, leading to larger amplitudes being recorded.
A seismograph is the machine that measures the strength of energy waves, such as seismic waves, generated by earthquakes. The data recorded on the seismograph is used to determine the earthquake's magnitude.
Surface waves show the highest amplitudes on a seismograph as they are slower-moving and have longer wavelengths, causing more pronounced shaking of the ground during an earthquake compared to body waves.
a surface wave is a earthquake it comes last. It goes Primary waves, Secondary waves, and Surface waves.
