I would say yes. As soon as the wave stops being a wave in shallow water then becomes a crest; bending.

How does refraction cause wave crests to move when the wave approach the shore?
nearly parallel to the shoreline
Refraction makes a ruler in a cup of warter look broken?
Refraction makes a ruler in a cup of water look broken because of the light rays bend when they move from water to air or air to water...
Why do waves form breakers as they move from deep water into shallow water?
The waves start off tall, when the water gets shallow like it is near the shore the waves fall and break. waves breakdown because the floor becomes to shallow for the waves so the bottom of the wave hits the shallow floor and slows it down but the top part of the wave continues and falls because the bottom part is behind it.
What do all flexible objects have in common?
they all bend or move in a way.
What do all moving objects have?
they all bend or move in a way.
What wave does not move laterally through the water but appears as alternating crests and troughs in a fixed position?
Standing Waves
Does water in streams move?
Water does move in streams; at bends, it moves faster on the outside and slower on the inside of the bend.
In water waves water particles move in?
Water particles (molecules) move transversely to the direction of propagation of the wave. That means that as the wave moves out across the water, which is its direction of propagation, the water molecules move up and down (transversely) to create the crests and troughs of the wave.
What is a water bending position look like?
Water is a fluid and bend but not to move its molecule is changed.
The speed at which the wave crests move is the?
... wave's speed of propagation.
Why is it harder to run in deep water as compared to shallow water?
The deeper you go, the more water there is, so it is pressing more on your legs, making it harder and harder to move.
What moves in waves?
The particles of the medium move up and down as the wave passes. The crests and troughs of the waves move with the wave.
How do you get over your fear of water?
You can get over your fear of water by beginning from your most comfort zone, say shallow end, as you move closer to the deeper end.
Though they move across the deepest ocean basins seiches and tsunami are called shallow water waves How can this be?
just cuz
What happens to light rays move from water to air?
what happens is that lenses bend light in a way that makes an image
How to fake death by drowning?
To fake death by drowning just jump in the shallow end of water and pretend that you do not know how to swim and move out of the water from the other side.
How both a wave's energy and the water in a wave move?
Ocean water within a wave moves in a circular motion in open water. As the wave approaches the shore, the water becomes shallow and the bottom.
