How do you measure the strength of a tsunami?
The usual measure of a tsunami is the height of the wave just as it reaches the beach.
The height of a wave above the median line?
The distance between the line of origin and the crest/trough of a wave is called the amplitude of the wave.
Distance from epicenter?
According to the chart, this earthquake's epicenter was 215 kilometers away. Measure the amplitude of the strongest wave. The amplitude is the height (on paper) of the strongest wave. On this seismogram, the amplitude is 23 millimeters.
What did the 2004 tsunami measure on the Richter scale?
The Richter scale is a measure of the energy released at the focus of the earthquake, which was a magnitude 9.0 quake that triggered the tsunami. A tsunami can be measured in wave height and wave speed and it was reported that the height of a tsunami wave that struck a coastal city in Japan's on March 11 at just over 77 feet high. In most places the waves were up to 4 stories high at 10 meters (33 feet). The wave speed was estimated to be 500mph or 800 kilometers per hour.
The measure of b is twice the measure ofa. What is the measure of d?
120
What is the amplitude of a wave is a direct measure of what?
The wave height and energy.
How do you find the amplitude of a wave?
Measure the height of its peaks
How do you measure the strength of a tsunami?
The usual measure of a tsunami is the height of the wave just as it reaches the beach.
What is the term for the height of a wave?
Hi The term used to refer the height of a wave is "significant wave height".
What is the height of the wave known as?
The height of a wave is the amplitude.
How do you use wave height in a sentence?
That wave height is too much for me!
Why does the amplitude depend on the height of a wave?
This is just the definition of "amplitude". The amplitude of a wave is the height of the wave. "Amplitude" is a fancier name for "height" when we speak about waves.
How do you measure waveforms to determine peak to peak values?
With an oscilloscope. Measure the vertical height of the wave on the screen . Multiply that by the volts per division setting. That will give you its' voltage.
In this parallelogram the measure of b is twice the measure of a what is the measure of B is twice the measure of A What is the measure of A?
The measure of A is 60.
The height of a wave above the median line?
The distance between the line of origin and the crest/trough of a wave is called the amplitude of the wave.
In this parallelogram the measure of b is twice the measure of a what is the measure of B is twice the measure of A What is the measure of D?
120
What is the height of the crest or trough?
The height of a wave crest or depth of a trough is called the amplitude of the wave.
