SEISMOGRAPH

1.

MOTIVATION
Earthquake is the example of
natural disaster phenomenon
that gives serious damage to
building and also kills many
people. The phenomenon
occurs without our control.

2.

PURPOSE
The research is to study an
instrument that can measure
the magnitude of earthquake
and give initial sign before
earthquake occurs.

HYPOTHESIS
1. The magnitude of
earthquake can be measure
by using seismograph.
2. Reducing damage and killed
people by knowing initial
sign before earthquake
occurs.

4.

RESULT

Diagram 2: The result of

seismograph.
The result is recorded by the
movement of earth.

METHODS
Usually seismograph is
installing 100km or about 62
miles from the epicentre of the
earthquake. Seismograph is
very sensitive pendulum that
recorded the shaking of earth.
The output of seismograph
known as seismogram. The
data from seismograph is
amplitude 3000, so that it can
be clearly seen.

6.

DISCUSSION
Using seismograph, the initial
sign of earthquake can be
seen. Hence, the damage and
killed people can be reducing
because preparation can be
done early to facing
earthquake.

7.

FUTURE WORK
In future, the seismograph can
be improve and it will give the
data that really precise. The
seismograph also can be install
at all place that usually occur
earthquake so that people will
more alert if earthquake
happen.
