What the factors on which velocity of seismic waves depend?
What instruments are used to measure seismic waves?
Devices called seismographs are used to measure seismic waves. They consist of a mass attached to a spring that is able to move with the ground during an earthquake. As the ground shakes, the mass moves independently of the spring, and this movement is recorded on a chart or digital readout.
