How does the refraction cause wave crest to move the waves approach shore?
nearly parallel to the shoreline
What is crest in waves?
The crest in waves are the broken peices of the waves in the ocean
What is the distance between a waves crest and its trough called?
It is called the wave height.
When may a storm not produced high-energy waves?
During storms,large, high-energy waves can erode the shore very quickly. These waves can break off large chunks of rock. Many of the features of shorelines are shaped by storm waves.
What conditions are required for two waves on a rope to interfere completely destructively?
they are to be shaped relatively close and the crest and trough need to be almost touching (or really close)
What is the hight of waves called?
It is called a crest.

Which type of wave has a trough and crest?
what is a wave with a low, smooth crest called? what is a wave with a low, smooth crest called?
What kind of waves are seen in storm conditions?
The kind of waves produced during storm conditions are called destructive waves. The two parts of a wave are called the crest and the trough.

What is a river crest?
When a river floods, its crest is the highest level the floodwaters reach. After the crest, the river level starts going down.
How can you determine a waves wavelength?
by measuring the distance from crest to crest
What happens when a crest falls on the crest during superposition of waves?
we get a bigger crest
What is the vertical distance between a waves trough and crest is called?
The vertical distance between trough and crest is called the height of the wave. While the crest is the highest point of a wave, the trough is the lowest point.Are you talking about waves? That simply depends on the frequency of the wave; crest and trough are just terms given to sections of waves. The crest is the top of the wave, and the trough is the bottom.It's the amplitude. Like on the drawn parts of a transverse wave. You can look it up on Google images.wave hight
