Question

  1. how do seismologists locate the center of an earthquake? by measuring the temperature changes in the ground by observing animal behavior by looking for cracks on the earths surface by using multiple seismographs in different locations 6. when the table was shaken harder, what happened to the marks on the paper? the pattern got larger the pattern got smaller the pattern did not change

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

For question 5: Seismologists use multiple seismographs. The time difference of seismic wave arrivals at different seismograph locations helps triangulate the earthquake's center. Temperature changes (not relevant for location), animal behavior (not a scientific locational method), and surface cracks (post - earthquake effect, not for precise location) are incorrect.
For question 6: When the table (simulating earthquake shaking) is shaken harder, it's like increasing the earthquake's intensity. In a seismograph - like setup (assuming the paper and marking mechanism), a harder shake (more intense motion) would create larger amplitude marks (similar to how stronger earthquakes have larger - amplitude seismic waves recorded).

Answer:

  1. By using multiple seismographs in different locations
  2. The pattern got larger
