How does the refraction cause wave crest to move the waves approach shore?
nearly parallel to the shoreline
Do waves hit the shoreline at an angle?
Yes they do. Only very few waves hit the shore straight on.
How can rthe energy of waves traveling through water affect the shoreline?
Waves typically affect the shoreline by eroding it. Constant forces of water against the shore make it weak, and will break down the rocks over time. Waves also bring animals from the sea onto the shore,
The turbulent water created by breaking waves is called?
Surf

How many waves crash into a shoreline a day?
The number of waves that crash into a shoreline in a day can vary widely depending on factors like wind speed, tides, and geographic location. In general, there can be hundreds to thousands of waves that reach a shoreline in a day.
