As a wave nears shore the wave height increases and the wavelength .?

Is the amplitude of a wave is the distance between a point on one wave and the identical point on the next wave?
No, the distance between a point on one wave and the identical point on the next wave is the wavelength, not the amplitude. Amplitude is the height of the wave.
Is The wavelength of a wave measures the height of each crest?
No. The wavelength is the distance, or separation, between each crest.
What happens to wave height and wavelength as a wave approaches shore?
Depending on height at origin as it approaches the coastal shelf it will rise and increase the strength of the wave. for example a wave 50ft high approaching the atlantic coastal shelf could rise to 150-200 feet with disastrious ramifications.
Amplitude is the speed of the wave?
No. Aplitude is the height of the wave. Frequency and wavelength can be used to calculate the speed of the wave by multiplying them together (if the units are appropriate).
What is the wave base for a wave with a height of 5 feet and a wavelength of 15 feet?
A wavelength of 15 feet yields a base of about 7.5 feet. The wave base of a wave (the depth to which it moves water) is about 1/2 the wavelength.
If a wave has a height of 5 feet and a wavelength of 10 feet what is the wave base?
Tha wave base would be about 5 feet, as it is about 1/2 of the wavelength.
A wave with a height of 5 feet and a wavelength of 10 feet has a wave base of?
5
For a wave with a height of 10 feet and wavelength of 20 feet what is the wave base?
The wave base (the depth at which water moves) would be about 10 feet, or 1/2 the wavelength.
A wave with a height of 5 feet and a wavelength os 15 feet has a wave base of?
7.5 feet
Which relation is there between wavelength and height?
There is no relation between wave length and wave height. You can change the wave height independently from the wave length. Wave height tells you which amplitude the wave has. If you think of sound that means how loud it is. The wave length tells you the pitch or the frequency of this sound, that means high or low sound. Long wavelength means bass sound and short wavelength means treble sound.

Explain the difference between a wave and a wavelength?
A wave is a normal wave and a wave length is the wave Height or distance
Is the amplitude of a wave is the distance between a point on one wave and the identical point on the next wave?
No, the distance between a point on one wave and the identical point on the next wave is the wavelength, not the amplitude. Amplitude is the height of the wave.
A wave with height of 10 feet and a wavelength of 20 feet has a wave based of?
10 feet
How do waves change as they approach the shore?
The wavelength decreases
Is The wavelength of a wave measures the height of each crest?
No. The wavelength is the distance, or separation, between each crest.
