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.
What is the evidence of plate tectonics?
There are two main evidences of plate tectonics: Paleomagnetism- We find that ancient rocks have preserved the magnetism of Earth that was present at that time. Studying the paleomagnetism records, we have found out the polar wandering path, i.e. the path through which the poles moved on the surface of the Earth. The polar wandering path shows clearly that the continents were in a different position than they are now. Even Earth's field reversals are recorded in the rocks. Earthquake patterns- The earthquake patterns clearly mark the boundaries of the crustal plates which further boosts the credibility of the plate tectonics model.
What two things can a seismometer detect?
Ground motion, earthquakes and nuclear explosions for example.
What document is a particular type of map that shows natural and man features on the earth?
What document is a particular type of map that shows natural man made features on the earth
A map that shows a wedge shaped portion of the earth is called?
conic projection
What graph shows the vibrations caused by an earthquake?
A seismograph is the graph that shows vibrations caused by an earthquake. It records the movement of the ground in a vertical direction as the seismic waves pass through the Earth's crust.
Liquid metal layer of the earth?
The layer of the earth made of liquid metal is called the Outer Core, I will attach a link below which shows a diagram of the Earth's structure.
How do earthquakes show the structure of Earth's interior?
Earthquake waves travel faster in rocks that are more dense so observing them shows the density layering of the Earth. Also some waves can not pass through liquids and this shows us that there is a liquid core to the Earth.
What shows that a tsunami followed the great cascadia earthquake?
There is evidence in the sediment on the U.S. west coast and there are records of a tsunami hitting Japan during that time as well.
What evidence is there that shows that the world is flat?
I'm tempted to leave this blank, as it's the actual answer to the question (that is, there is no such evidence), but I'm afraid it would be misinterpreted. The Earth is not flat.
What evidence shows that earth's magnetic field changes?
One piece of evidence is the study of ancient rocks that show reversals in magnetic orientation. Another evidence comes from observations of the movement of the magnetic poles over time. Additionally, observations of magnetic anomalies in the Earth's crust provide further evidence of changes in the magnetic field.
What shows you the indicative of an upcoming earthquake?
animals and insects.

When will zombies come to earth?
There is no scientific evidence to suggest that zombies will come to Earth. Zombies are a fictional concept popular in movies, books, and TV shows.

Is there any evidence that plate tectonics operate on the moon?
No. The only object other than Earth that shows evidence of processes similar to plate tetonics is Jupiters 4th largest moon, Europa.
What graph shows the shaking of a earthquake?
Seismograph. (Size-mo-graf).
