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.
What else can I help you with?
What scale is the instrument that is used to record primary secondary and surface waves of an earthquake?
The Richter Magnitude Scale. The magnitude is a base-10 logarithmic scale obtained by calculating the logarithm of the amplitude of waves measured by a seismograph. An earthquake that measures 5.0 on the Richter scale has a shaking amplitude 10 times larger and corresponds to an energy release of approximately 31.6 times greater than one that measures 4.0 The same applies comparing a 4.0 to a 3.0, a 6.0 to a 5.0, and so on.
Why do you need a bench mat under the equipment used to conduct an experiment?
A bench mat is essential under experimental equipment to provide a stable, non-slip surface that helps prevent movement or tipping during experiments. It also protects the underlying surface from spills, stains, or damage caused by chemicals and heat. Additionally, the mat can help absorb vibrations and reduce noise, creating a safer and more controlled environment for conducting experiments.
What is surface defects?
Surface defects are the shortcomings, imperfections, or lack of substance on the expected surface of an item.
A shiny surface reflects less light than a matte surface?
A shiny surface reflects 'more' light than a matt surface.
The type of surface that warms up the slowest is the?
The type of surface that warms up the slowest is the "ocean" surface.
Which instrument measures and records vibrations within the earth and on the earth surface?
This is known as a seismometer or seismograph.
What instrument measures surface weather?
An instrument that measures surface weather is a thermometer. It allows meteorologists to monitor and track temperature changes at the Earth's surface, providing valuable data for weather forecasting and analysis.
What instrument measures surface area?
Try a tape measure and a calculator to measure surface area.
What instrument measures how the force of gravity on Earth's surface differs from the force of gravity on the Moon's surface?
a spring scale
What is instrument use to measure tremors or vibrations of the earths surface?
A seismometer is used to measure tremors or vibrations of the Earth's surface. This instrument can detect and record the movement of the ground caused by seismic waves resulting from natural events like earthquakes or man-made activities like explosions.
What instrument measures the tilt of a surface - one that has an air bubble in a liquid?
A spirit level.
What instrument measures the amount of gravitational attraction between Earth and an object at rest on Earth's surface?
scale
What instrument measures the force needed to move an object along a surface?
A spring scale is an instrument that measures the force needed to move an object along a surface. It works by stretching a spring in proportion to the applied force, allowing the measurement of force in units such as newtons or pounds.
What instrument measures changes in the tilt of the earth?
A tiltmeter measures changes in the tilt of the earth. :)A tiltmeter is an instrument that measures changes in the tilt of the earth. :)
What is an absolute altimeter?
An absolute altimeter is an instrument which measures vertical distance to the surface below a certain reference point.
What instrument measures solid objects?
The answer will depend on what characteristic of the object is being measured: its mass, volume, surface area, colour, density etc.
What measures the force that air molecules uses to push on a surface?
The measure of the force with which air molecules push on a surface is air pressure. An instrument that is used to measure air pressure is a barometer.
