What else can I help you with?
Why are headlands eroded faster than the land at the end of inlets and bays?
Wave refraction concentrates wave energy at the headlands increasing erosion relative to embayments, where wave energy is dispersed.
Is surface wave faster then a p wave?
no a p wave is faster than s wave
Which feature was formed because more erosion took place than deposition?
A canyon or a valley may form when more erosion takes place than deposition. This can happen when the forces of erosion, such as water or ice, remove material faster than it can be replenished by deposition, resulting in a deep and steep-walled feature.
Which is faster a heat wave or sound wave?
Any electromagnetic wave in vacuum is about 881,000 times faster than any sound in air.
Which river and coast features are formed by erosion?
Rivers can erode valleys, create meanders, and form river cliffs. Coastal erosion can result in the formation of sea cliffs, wave-cut platforms, and sea caves.
What issues might the coastal resort of swanage have?
erosion. deposition. transportation. hydraulic action erosion (wave erosion). abrasion erosion (wave erosion).
A wave barrier is produced when a wave source moves?
A wave barrier is produced when a wave source moves faster than the waves it creates, causing the waves to pile up in front of the source. This creates a barrier of high wave intensity.
When the top of a wave moves faster than the bottom of a wave the wave collapses forming a(n)?
The wave forms a breaker.
Can a wave travel faster than the speed of light?
No
Light wave travel faster than gamma wave?
No, they travel at the same speed
What landforms are created by water erosion?
The 3 landforms created by wave erosion sometimes called coastal erosion are headlands and bays, cliffs and wave cut platforms and finally caves, arches, stacks and stumps. Wave erosion is the wearing away of land and the removal of beach by wave currents.
Why are headlands eroded faster than the land at the ends of inlets and bays?
Wave refraction concentrates wave energy at the headlands increasing erosion relative to embayments, where wave energy is dispersed.
