Earthquakes
triangulating its loction
They map faults, detect changes along faults, and develop a method of predicting earthquakes
wHeres answer?
scientists use their data to make charts and ____ to communicate the results of an experiment.
Scientists use particle accelerators to collide atoms.
true trust me i got it wrong on a test when i put faulse. the answer i true
laser-ranging device
Yes, scientists use tiltmeters to monitor subtle changes in the tilt of the ground caused by movement along faults. Tiltmeters are useful for detecting hidden faults by providing real-time data on deformation in the Earth's crust, helping scientists understand fault behavior and earthquake risk. They are often deployed in areas of known seismic activity to better understand fault dynamics.
They can use seismographs
Scientists use a computer to locate the epicenter because it would be dangerous to go out there and locate it.... and they never know about any after shocks......

Geologists can use seismographs to detect hidden faults. When seismic waves encounter a fault, they are reflected off of the fault. Geologists can use this information to chart the location of a depth of a hidden fault.

Seismographs still, but computers make it faster and easier to use
Scientists can use seismograph data to locate the focus of an earthquake
Geological maps are used to locate faults and folds in beds of rocks. These maps use symbols and colors to represent different rock formations, faults, and folds, helping geologists interpret the structure of the Earth's crust in a specific area. By analyzing these maps, geologists can better understand the tectonic history and potential hazards of a region.
Scientists use the principle of cross-cutting relationships to determine the relative ages of rocks when they find faults or intrusions. This principle states that the rock being cut must be older than the geological event cutting through it (like a fault or intrusion). By analyzing the sequence of events and their relative ages, scientists can piece together the geological history of a region.
