What has caused the wave rock to change colour?
sun
How did the wave affect the water level near the rock?
The wave caused the water level to rise and fall as it passed by the rock. This change in water level is a result of the wave's energy moving through the water.
Describe what the wave rock looks like?
Wave Rock is a natural rock formation in Australia that resembles a giant ocean wave about to crest. It is a large granite rock that is curved like a wave, reaching a height of about 15 meters and extending for about 110 meters in length. The rock's distinctive shape is caused by weathering and erosion over millions of years.
What is a change in the shape of a rock caused by a force placed on it?
Mechanical change
What is the bending of a wave caused by a change in its speed as it moves from medium to another?
Refraction.
How do rock particles move during the passage of a P wave through rock?
A P wave is a type of seismic wave that is caused by an earthquake. P waves are the first seismic waves felt during an earthquake. When the P wave moves, rock particles move back and forth along the direction of the P wave.
A type of wave caused by a volcano?
there is no wave caused by a volcano.
Why a change in direction speed an wavelength caused by change in medium?
A change in direction, speed, and wavelength of a wave occurs when it enters a new medium due to the change in the wave's propagation characteristics in the new medium. This change is a result of the wave encountering a different medium with a different density, temperature, or other physical properties that affect how the wave interacts with the new medium. The wave will refract, change speed, and change wavelength to accommodate this new medium.
What caused the colour of the wave rock and why?
Wave Rock's distinctive color comes from the iron in the granite rock oxidizing over time, giving it a reddish hue. This process is similar to rusting, where the iron reacts with oxygen in the air. Other minerals in the rock can also contribute to its coloration.
What causes a wave to bend from 1 medium to another?
A wave bends when it enters a new medium due to a change in its speed caused by the change in the medium's properties, such as density or elasticity. This change in speed at the boundary between the two mediums causes the wave to change direction, known as refraction.
How does the phase shift affect refraction in the context of wave propagation?
The phase shift affects refraction in wave propagation by changing the direction of the wave as it passes from one medium to another. This change in direction is caused by the difference in the speed of the wave in each medium, which leads to a change in the wavelength and frequency of the wave.
Does refraction always involve a change in the speed and the direction of a wave?
Yes, refraction involves a change in the speed and direction of a wave when it passes from one medium to another with a different optical density. The change in speed and direction is caused by the wave bending as it enters the new medium at an angle.
