A machine that measures the shaking of an earthquake?
A seismograph is a machine that measures the shaking of an earthquake. It consists of a ground motion sensor, which records the movement caused by seismic waves, and produces a seismogram, which shows the intensity and duration of the shaking. Scientists use this data to analyze the characteristics of earthquakes and to monitor seismic activity.
What graph shows the vibrations caused by an earthquake?
A seismograph is the graph that shows vibrations caused by an earthquake. It records the movement of the ground in a vertical direction as the seismic waves pass through the Earth's crust.
What is seismic shaking-?
"Seismic" refers to an earthquake, so seismic shaking is the shaking motion of the earth (and things on it) caused by an earthquake. There are different waves that emanate from the hypocenter, or point of origin.
What does seismographic mean?
A seismograph is a diagram that shows the activity of an earthquake. The longer the line on the diagram, the more violent the shaking of the ground is.
How earthquake is measured using sesimograph?
The shaking of the ground makes the pen move up or down, or side to side, depending on what kind of seismograph it is. The pen then draws a graph, and the more the pen shakes, the the stronger the earthquake.
What does it mean when your shaking?
There is an earthquake
Who would feel the ground shaking first in an earthquake?
i depends where the earthquake is.
The amount of shaking produced by an earthquake at a given location is called the?
The amount of shaking produced by an earthquake at a given location is called the intensity. It is measured on the Modified Mercalli Intensity (MMI) scale, which quantifies the level of shaking experienced by people and structures during an earthquake.
When an earthquake occurs is shaking greater?
Yes, shaking is a primary characteristic of earthquakes
During an earthquake the most violent shaking occurs at what location?
The most violent shaking during an earthquake typically occurs closest to the earthquake's epicenter, where the seismic waves are strongest. As you move further away from the epicenter, the shaking intensity decreases.
Where does the most violent shaking occur at during an earthquake?
At the epicentre which, is the central point from which it originates.
How do you know when the earthquake starts?
You can feel the ground shaking, objects shaking or rattling, hear a rumbling noise, or see items swaying. These are common signs that an earthquake has started.
