A wave breaks when its steepness exceeds?
I believe a wave breaks when its steepness exceeds its height and speed.
How does the depth of the ocean affect the shape and speed of a Wave?
A wave's energy moves in a circular pattern and the deeper the water column, the faster the wave travels and the smaller its size e.g. it has low steepness. As it approaches the shore and the water becomes shallow, the bottom of the wave drags on the ocean floor which slows the bottom of the wave down but the top of the wave continues at the same speed. Eventually the top of the wave gets so far ahead of the bottom that it topples over forming a breaker.
An important property of every line is its steepness or?
slope
How the steepness of a slope affects stopping distance?
The steeper the slope, the longer the stopping distance is.
The steepness of a line on a graph is called?
The steepness of a graphed equation is called the slope. Slope can be found after choosing to points on the graph. After recording the coordinate points (x1,y1) snd (x2, y2), slope= y2-y1/x2-x1, or rise/run.
A wave breaks when its steepness exceeds?
I believe a wave breaks when its steepness exceeds its height and speed.
What is a measure of the steepness of a line?
The measure of the steepness of a line is known as a line's slope.
What can you determine about the steepness of a line in terms of its slope?
Its steepness is the absolute value of its slope.
Steepness of an area?
An area cannot have a steepness. It can have different steepnesses depending on which direction you travel in.
What is the steepness on a line graph called?
The steepness of a line graph is called the "gradient" ------------------------------- or slope.
What is the slope of a line having no steepness?
A straight horizontal line is a line having no steepness.
Is the steepness of a line on a motion graph is called a slope?
"Slope" is the steepness of the line on any graph.
What are the factors affecting of coastal recession?
The factors that affect coastal recession are: wind, rock structure, vegetation, weathering, fetch, destructive wave, steepness of the beach and soft or hard rock.
How is the steepness of the line is related to the rate of change?
the steepness of the line is the slope of the line which is the rate of change; the steeper the slope, the faster the rate of change
The stepness of a line is called?
I think 'stepness' should be 'steepness'. Steepness of the line is called slope of the line.
