Clara and Eli used materials they could find at home to make a simple seismograph. As Clara pulls the strip of paper through the seismograph, Eli gently shakes the table.

Make a prediction. What will happen to the paper as Eli shakes the table?

Answer:

Would you be so kind to change a few words or sentence structure when you're submitting? This is the answer I wrote and what I'll submit. And I really don't want the teacher to think that I copied off of someone.

Step-by-step explanation:

As they shake the table a seismogram is being made, which is a recording of those "ground shakes" created by students. Eli shakes the tables up to down creating movement, which is being recorded by a fixated pen inside a machine as Clara pulls a strip of paper through the seismograph.
