The wave motion was directed full upon a line of shore or more or less ....mediastreet.in
an ocean wave approaching the shore at an angle
To estimate the speed of a wave, a person can estimate the distance the wave is from shore and then time how long the wave takes to reach the shore. For example, if a wave is one mile out and it takes one minute to reach shore, the wave is traveling at 60 miles per hour.

There are many factors that determine the direction that waves take. Out in deep water, wind and surface currents affect the direction of waves. When you get closer to the coast the shape and contour of the earth's surface affects the wave's direction more.As a wave becomes shallow it slows down. If the wave is at an angle to the shallow part of the shore, the wave bends and becomes more parallel to the beach. Also most beaches are not actually straight, they curve so there are parts of the wave that are parallel to the shore.
yes because the wave wash the plankton on the shore
yes because the wave wash the plankton on the shore
they spread out and expand less energy
The two features formed by wave deposition are islands and beaches.
The three features formed by wave deposition is spits, beach, and sandbars.
water wave

I believe that erosion removes sand etc. and deposition replaces it. Hurricanes are a prime example of both.
As it approaches the shore the energy moving through the water meets the shallows resistance. It collapses into the wave you see at the beach. This energy can smooth out the beach with the help of tidal variation. Make rocks into sand.
The wave would slow down as it approaches the shore.
The wave would slow down as it approaches the shore.
fish on the rocky shore depend on the wave action for nutrients
