What effect would a New Madrid earthquake have on the land itself?

A New Madrid earthquake could cause significant ground shaking, liquefaction, landslides, and ground deformation in the affected area. The intensity of the earthquake could lead to changes in the landscape, such as shifting of the land surface, creation of new faults, and changes in water flow patterns.


How does a seismograph prevent the effect of a an earthquake?

A seismograph itself cannot prevent the effect of an earthquake. It is an instrument that measures and records seismic waves generated by an earthquake. The data collected by seismographs helps scientists study and understand earthquakes, which in turn can contribute to improved building codes and earthquake-resistant infrastructure. Preventing the effect of an earthquake requires engineering solutions such as designing structures to withstand seismic forces or implementing early warning systems.
