What tool do scientists use to predict earthquakes?

Five instruments that may be used in an attempt to predict an earthquake are the following:1. Creepmeter, which straddles the fault line and shows when the soil above the earth's crust starts to move as part of an earthquake;2. Global positioning system, which shows when the earth's crust starts to shift as part of an earthquake;3. Laser light, which straddles the fault line and shows when a light beam from one side isn't transmitted in the expected amount of time or to the expected place on the other;4. Magnetometer, which shows the changes that are made to the magnetic field by the underground activities leading to an earthquake;5. Strain meters, through the coordinated use of the seismograph and seismometer, to show the presence of the vibrations that lead up to and are part of an earthquake.


When did the fault in the Christchurch earthquake last move?

The fault that caused the Christchurch earthquake, specifically the Port Hills Fault, last moved during the significant earthquake that struck on February 22, 2011. This earthquake had a magnitude of 6.3 and resulted in widespread damage and loss of life in Christchurch, New Zealand. The fault movement during this event was part of the ongoing tectonic activity in the region.

Where is the epicenter of the New Madrid earthquake that happened in 1812?

The seismograph was not invented until the later part of the nineteenth century. So the magnitude and exact locations of the earthquake(s) that occurred on the New Madrid Fault (or Reelfoot Rift ) in 1811 and 1812 are not known. Evidence from "sand blows" indicate the epicenter of one of the larger ones that occurred on February 7 of 1812, was near the town of New Madrid, Mo.

The part of a seismograph that does NOT move during an earthquake?

The seismograph's mass, typically a heavy weight or pendulum, remains stationary during an earthquake. Its inertia allows it to stay in place while the ground moves. This mass is connected to a recording device that captures the motion caused by seismic waves during an earthquake.

Does the word seismograph need to be capitalized?
