What is lowest depth of a wavelength?
Light from the red end of the spectrum penetrates deep water better than light from the blue end of the spectrum. Evidence: Algae that live in deeper water have chlorophylls with absorbance peaks in the infra-red part of the spectrum.
What is the relationship between the wave speed in deep water and wavelength called?

What is Energy moving through a body of water called?
Energy moving through a body of water is scientifically called hydro energy. When hydro energy is present, the water cycle changes.
Why do waves travel faster in deep water?
The depth of moving water does not determine how fast it travels. Certainly shallow water will travel faster than deep water for the same volume of water moving past a point per unit of time. And if you think about it, it will become clear. Let's look at water in a pipe and make a comparison. Two pipes of different diameter have water moving through them. And the same volume of water is moving through both pipes per unit of time. The water in the smaller pipe will have to travel faster to get the same volume of it past a point in a given time as the larger pipe. Said another way, the water moving through the larger pipe won't be flowing as fast as the water in the smaller pipe to get the same flow rate (gallons/minute, or other measure). The same logic applies to streams or rivers. What we generally see is that large rivers move slowly, but that's generally because the slopedown which they run is small compared to smaller tributaries higher up. This, that is, the issue with the slope or gradient down which water is moving, is a geological phenomenon. We often seem smaller streams or rivers moving more quickly than larger ones. But we cannot make a blanket statement that shallow water moves more quickly than deep water. It may, or may not, depending on the circumstances.
What is power generated by moving water called?
hydroelectric power
A wave moving in water that is deeper than half its wavelength is called what?
A deep-water wave.
What is lowest depth of a wavelength?
Light from the red end of the spectrum penetrates deep water better than light from the blue end of the spectrum. Evidence: Algae that live in deeper water have chlorophylls with absorbance peaks in the infra-red part of the spectrum.
Which has more energy to cause erosion quickly moving water or slowly moving water?
Quickly moving water has more energy to cause erosion because quickly moving water digs deeper into the ground than slower water. Hope I Helped!!
Examples of the equation velocity equals frequency wavelength?
Any wave. Of you have a wave (light, water etc.), it will have a frequency and a wavelength. Multiply these and you get the speed at which the wave is moving.
What is Water moving all around the earth is called?
Water moving all around the earth is called the Water Cycle.
What is the mass movements of surface water is called?
Mass movements of water are called currents. This is equally true for surface water or deeper water.
Why do rivers grow wider and deeper along their course?
The acids and the moving water erode the banks and the bottom of the river.
How is water length and frequency of a wave related?
I don't know what's "water length" but I do know that the deeper the water are, the faster the wave goes. If you meant wave length and not water length, then the longer the wavelength, the smaller the frequency of the wave.
When water molecules are moving closer together in the air is called?
When water molecules are moving closer together in the air it is called
