How often waves happen?

Waves occur continuously in nature, such as ocean waves, sound waves, and light waves. The frequency of the waves depends on the specific type of wave and the source generating it. Some waves, like ocean waves, occur in a rhythmic pattern, while others, like seismic waves, can be sporadic.


Do tsunami waves occur in the middle of the ocean?

Tsunami waves can occur in the middle of the ocean as a result of undersea earthquakes or landslides. These waves may not be as noticeable in open ocean areas due to their long wavelengths, but they can build up in height and strength as they approach coastal areas.


Where do surface waves occur?

Surface waves occur at the boundary between two different mediums, such as air and water, or air and land. They travel along the interface, transferring energy in the form of ripples or undulations on the surface. Examples of surface waves include ocean waves, seismic waves, and electromagnetic waves.

Waves that travel at the surface such as Raleigh and long waves?

Raleigh waves are surface waves that occur in many types of media, such as water and the Earth's crust. They cause the ground to roll up and down in a wave-like motion during an earthquake. Long waves, or long-period ocean waves, are also surface waves that have longer wavelengths and occur in the ocean due to forces such as gravity and wind.


Why does tidal waves occur?

It happens due to the shifting of the earths plates.. Jus like a earthquake but it happens in the ocean!


A tsunami can occur when there is vertical movement at a fault under?

A tsunami can occur when there is vertical movement at a fault under the ocean floor, displacing a large volume of water. This displacement generates a series of powerful waves that can travel long distances across the ocean. When these waves reach shallow coastal areas, they can increase in height and cause devastating flooding and destruction.


Where do tidal wave occur?

mostly in the Pacific Ocean


What is a possible effects of earthquakes that occur on the ocean floor?

Tsunamis (aka tidal waves) are a possibility, but are not limited to undersea quakes.
