vibrations of an earthquake
A seismograph records vibrations of an earthquake.
A seismograph records vibrations of an earthquake.
To understand which of the options a seismograph records, we need to know what a seismograph is. A seismograph is a scientific instrument used to detect and record seismic waves caused by earthquakes. These seismic waves are vibrations that propagate through the Earth's crust. When an earthquake occurs, it generates waves that travel through the ground. The seismograph detects these waves and converts them into a graphical representation called a seismogram, which records the magnitude and duration of the earthquake.
So, the correct answer is "vibrations of an earthquake."
