A seismograph is located under the ground. When there is an earthquake, the ground shakes, which also shakes the pen on the seismograph, making it move along the paper, drawing lines. To know how strong the earthquake was, scientist can look on the paper. The bigger the lines, the stronger the earthquake was.
