Earthquakes can be recorded on a seismograph. This device produces a piece of paper with a long flat line, along with scribbles drawn with a needle that represent times when there has been an earthquake. How is energy transmitted to the seismograph?(1 point)
Sound waves carry energy through the air and shake the needle of the seismograph.
Sound waves carry energy through Earth and shake Earth below the seismograph.
Seismic waves carry energy through Earth and shake Earth below the seismograph.
Seismic waves carry energy through the air and shake the needle of the seismograph.
i think B
No, C
It’s C, earth quacks carry SEISMIC waves; not sound
1 waves will pass through the material
2 matter is needed to transmit sound waves
3 seismic waves carry energy through earth and shake earth below the seismograph
4 they can travel through matter but not in a vacuum
This is the answer 100% correct your welcome
I hate to break it to you, but I think your answer has gone a bit off track. It's not sound waves that transmit energy to the seismograph, but seismic waves. These waves can travel through the Earth and shake the ground below the seismograph, causing the needle to move and record the earthquake. So the correct answer is C. Keep on shaking things up with your knowledge!
The correct answer is C. Seismic waves carry energy through Earth and shake Earth below the seismograph.
The correct answer is C: Seismic waves carry energy through Earth and shake Earth below the seismograph.
Seismic waves are waves of energy that travel through the Earth's layers. When an earthquake occurs, it releases energy in the form of seismic waves that radiate outwards from the source. These waves can travel through the Earth and cause the ground to shake.
A seismograph is a device specifically designed to measure and record seismic waves. It consists of a heavy base, a pendulum or mass suspended above the base, and a recording device such as a pen or needle. When an earthquake happens, the ground shakes, which in turn shakes the base of the seismograph. This shaking is transmitted to the mass or pendulum, causing it to move relative to the base. As the mass or pendulum moves, it also moves the recording device, such as the needle, which leaves a trace or scribbles on a piece of paper.
So, the energy from an earthquake is transmitted to the seismograph through seismic waves that travel through the Earth and shake the ground below the device.
