What is the instrument called that detects seismic waves?
A seismometer or seismograph
What machine detects earthquakes?
A seismometer (the term seismograph may be used to describe a seismometer combined with an instrument for recording and displaying the amplitude and frequency of the seismic waves that the seismometer measures). Please see the related link.
What is the instrument that detects and measures waves produced by an earthquake?
A seismograph measures and records the waves generated by earthquakes and similar seismic events.Earlier devices had separate measuring (seismometer) and recording instruments.
Sensing device that detects magnetic fields helping confirm seafloor spreading?
A magnetometer is a device that is used to detect magnetic fields on the seafloor. It was invented by Sheldon Breiner.
What detects the motion of ground waves in an Earthquake?
seismometer
Which instrument detects earthquakes?
A seismometer detects the earthquake vibrations that the seismograph records.
What detects earthquake vibrations?
a Seismograph measure earthquake vibrations
What is a seismiograph?
It detects ground vibrations.
How do detects sounds?
Vibrations and their giant ears.
Which sensory system detects vibrations?
Mechanoreceptors~that chicka <3
What is the structure of the cartilaginous and bony fishes that detects vibrations in the water?
Lateral Line
In what way is hearing in humans similar to lateral-line reception in fishes?
The lateral line of a fish detects vibrations in the water and transmits them to the brain. The external ear in humans detects vibrations in air, water, and solids and transmits them to the brain.
Which instrument detects and records seismic activity?
Seismometer
What is a NOx sensor?
It is a sensor that measures/ detects oxides of nitrogen.
What tool is useful in detecting and measuring the waves and energy of an earthquake?
The instrument types are known collectively as seismometers and seismographs. A seismometer detects the vibrations that travel through the ground, and a seismograph makes a visual record of the amplitude of waves over a period of time.
What is the instrument called that detects seismic waves?
A seismometer or seismograph
How does a fish use its lateral line?
lateral line is a line on the fish body that function to detect vibrations in water
