What instrument record earthquakes?
A seismometer is used to measure the strength of earthquakes.
Why is it useful to have two separate systems to measure Earthquakes?
Two separate systems used to measure earthquakes are important for accuracy. More than one system to measure gives scientists an accurate measurement of an earthquakes strength.
What scale is measured for an earthquakes strength?
Richter scale is used for measuring earthquakes. It is a scale which works from 1 to 10 magnitude.
What is a sisemograph?
a tool used by scientists to measure earthquakes by movement
Saffir-Simpson Scale is used to measure the strength of which type of storm?
Hurricane strength.
What instrument record earthquakes?
A seismometer is used to measure the strength of earthquakes.
Is the Richter scale used to measure the strength of earthquakes?
yes it is
What does seismographmean?
A seismograph is an instrument used to measure the strength of earthquakes.
What is the numerical scale used to express the strength of an earthquake?
The Richter scale is used to measure the strength of earthquakes.
What Chinese invention is used to measure the strength of earthquakes?
Dragon jar
What percentage of baseball series are sweeps?
used to measure the strength of earthquakes?
What scale is used to describe the strength of an earthquakes?
The scale used to measure the strength of an earthquake is called the Richter scale
What does the seismograth measure?
The strength of earthquakes
Why is it useful to have two separate systems to measure Earthquakes?

What scale measure earthquakes strength?
magnitude
What do you use to measure the strength of earthquakes?
A seismograph.
What is a measure of the strength of an earthquake?
Earthquake strength is measured using a magnitude scale. For small to moderate strength Earthquakes (< magnitude 7) the Richter scale is used. For Earthquakes between 7 and 8 the body and surface magnitude scales are used and for earthquakes larger than 8, the moment magnitude scale is used.
