How many seismograph do we have in the world?

There are 14838 seismograph stations of which 11559 are open and 3279 are closed, as of 11th March at 2030 UTC/GMT. Source: United States Geographical Survey.


How many seismograph stations does it take to find an exact location of an earthquake's epicenter?

At least three seismograph stations are needed to triangulate the exact location of an earthquake's epicenter. By comparing the arrival times of the seismic waves at different stations, scientists can pinpoint the epicenter where these intersect. More stations can provide a more accurate and precise location.


Why do you need magnetism in your lives?

Magnetism is crucial for many aspects of modern life, including generating electricity, powering devices like electric motors and generators, and enabling technologies like MRI machines for medical imaging. It plays a key role in numerous everyday objects like speakers, credit cards, and magnetic storage devices. Without magnetism, our lives would lack the convenience and functionality that many of us take for granted.


What are different ways to measure temperature?

You can measure relative heat with a thermometer.The units of temperature (degrees Celsius / kelvins) indicate molecular heat content, while the actual heat energy being generated, added, or removed is measured in joules(newton-meters), a unit of work.


Why is the seismograph important today?

A seismograph as important today because it can monitor movement of the ground before an earthquake happens and it can inform people. That way you can send help fast and save many peoples lives

What are force summing devices?

Most pressure measuring devices have elastic members for sensing pressure at the primary stage elastic members are of many types and convert the pressure into mechanical displacement which is later converted into an electrical form using a secondary transducer.These devices are known as force summing devices

What are three modern communications devices?

Many modern devices can be used for communication hence the reason the industry is IT (Information technology). but as for ones dedicated to communication we have...... Cellular phones, Fax machines, Personal computers. Those are some of the most common devices, I could list many more but that's three of them.


Can you predict the part of the US mostly to experience strong earthquakes?

Yes. Earthquakes occur most often along fault lines. There are also many different devices (seismograph) that sense seismic waves and can predict earthquakes.


Which instrument measures and records vibrations within the earth and on the earth's surface?

It is a "Seismograph". It "listens" to the vibrations, and draws out (with an inked needle) the tremors onto a piece of paper. A seismometer is what measures and records earthquakes. Many modern seismometers send their data directly electronically to computers, which record and automatically analyze that data instead of using the inked needle on paper.


How many devices can be daisy chained on a single standard SCSI controller?
