What is an earthquake detector?

1 Earthquake detector or a earthquake alarm is a

device that sense earthquake and alerts people. So,
that they can move for safety.

2 We can find a lot of earthquake detectors in a

market. Some smart phone apps are also exists. But
it would be best i we can make one at our house or
at school.

3 If you want to make one you can follow below

article. We can also learn about many science terms
via this school science projects such as earthquake,
Switch, buzzer etc.

Now Parav tells you about what are cause

WHAT ARE CAUSES OF EARTHQUAKE

Earthquakes are usually caused when underground

rock suddenly breaks and there is rapid motion
along a fault. This sudden release of energy causes
the seismic waves that make the ground shake.
During and after the earthquake, the plates or blocks
of rock start moving—and they continue to move
until they get stuck again. The spot underground
where the rock first breaks is called the focus or of
hypometer earthquake. The place right above the
focus at the ground surface is called the of the
epicenter earthquake.

Now Ujjawal tells you about what are

advantages of earthquake detector.

WHAT ARE ADVANTAGES OF EARTHQUAKE

DETECTOR.

Earthquake is produced by sudden release of

tremendous amount of energy with in the earth by
sudden movement of Earth's various layers.
Earthquake strikes suddenly, very fast and violently
without any warning. It may harm badly designed
and constructed buildings which may injure or kill its
inhabitants. The following factors affect the building
safety during the earthquake.

However, if the structure has ductile behavior, it may

increase the strength of the building. RCC structure,
steel structure and timber structure have ductile
nature so this material is suitable for construction.

Now Yajush tells you about what are

disadvantages of earthquake detector.

What are the disadvantages of

earthquake detectors?

Individuals can use the alert time to drop, cover, and

hold on, reducing injuries and fatalities, or if alert
time allows, evacuate hazardous buildings.

lose proximity to each other.There are limits to the

accuracy of estimating magnitude, especially for
large earthquakes. It is difficult to separate
earthquakes and provide accurate warnings when
multiple earthquakes occur almost simultaneously or
in close proximity to each other.
