What is the name of the machine that graphs earthquakes?
The machine that graphs earthquakes is called a seismograph. It measures the motion of the ground caused by seismic waves generated by earthquakes.
What kind of scale measures earthquakes according to the level of damage?
The Modified Mercalli Intensity (MMI) scale measures earthquakes based on the level of damage and the effects felt by people and structures. The scale ranges from I (least amount of damage) to XII (total destruction).
What are high magnitude earthquakes?
High magnitude earthquakes are seismic events with a magnitude of 7.0 or greater on the Richter scale. These earthquakes can cause widespread damage to buildings, infrastructure, and the environment, as well as posing significant risks to human life. Proper preparedness and response measures are crucial in mitigating the impact of high magnitude earthquakes.
How far does a seismograph go up to?
A traditional seismograph typically measures earthquakes up to about magnitude 9.0 on the Richter scale. Modern digital seismographs can detect smaller earthquakes accurately as well.
Why are Richter scales called Richter Scales?
Richter scales are named after Charles F. Richter, an American seismologist who developed the scale in 1935. The scale measures the magnitude of earthquakes based on the amplitude of seismic waves recorded on seismographs.
What is a scientist who measures earthquakes?
Geologists engage in the study of earthquakes.
What is a seismo graph?
it measures the size of earthquakes
What is the Rithcher scale?
It measures an Earthquakes intensity
What measures personality?
A seismologist is the scientist responsible for measuring earthquakes.
What does a Richter scale indicates about an earthquake?
Measures the magnitude of earthquakes.:)
What is the name of the machine that graphs earthquakes?
The machine that graphs earthquakes is called a seismograph. It measures the motion of the ground caused by seismic waves generated by earthquakes.
What instrument measures earthquakes that may precede a volcanic eruption?
A seismograph.
Find common points of earthquakes and volcanoes?
there are only 2
Which meter measures the potential difference in the circuit?
A voltmeter measures the potential difference between two points,whether or not the two points are in the same circuit.
What natural disaster is measured on the Richter scale?
the Richter scale measures earthquakes...i learned that in science! we were learning about earthquakes. the moment magnitude scale also measures earthquakes but in a different way...that was a fun unit:D
What kind of scale measures earthquakes according to the level of damage?
The Modified Mercalli Intensity (MMI) scale measures earthquakes based on the level of damage and the effects felt by people and structures. The scale ranges from I (least amount of damage) to XII (total destruction).
How does the mercalli scale best demonstrate the power and the destructive nature of earthquake?
The Richter scale measures the force of earthquakes mechanically. The Mercalli scale measures the damage caused by earthquakes. The location of the epicenter of an earthquake can result in a great variation in damage amounts.
