because the water gets deeper. so the swells in the ocean are more frequent but smaller since theres more water

Do waves created by a large disturbance travel faster than waves created by a small disturbance do?
No, waves with a smaller disturbance travel faster. This is because they have less distance to travel.
Why do sound waves travel in waves?
Because they are waves, and waves travel that way.
How do sound waves travel what do sound waves need in order to travel?
sound waves bounce off of walls. they need air to travel.
Electromagnetic waves with the highest energy have the?
Electromagnetic waves of higher energy have a higher frequency and a smaller wavelength.Electromagnetic waves of higher energy have a higher frequency and a smaller wavelength.Electromagnetic waves of higher energy have a higher frequency and a smaller wavelength.Electromagnetic waves of higher energy have a higher frequency and a smaller wavelength.
How are water waves different from electromagnetic waves?
electromagnetic waves can travel through vacuum while water waves travel in water.
Do waves created by a large disturbance travel faster than waves created by a small disturbance do?
No, waves with a smaller disturbance travel faster. This is because they have less distance to travel.
What happens to the wavelength of electromagnetic waves as they travel through a denser medium?
The waves become smaller.
Why do waves get smaller as they travel farther?
They get closer to the sea bed as they come in-land and have to start braking.
Why do sound waves travel in waves?
Because they are waves, and waves travel that way.
Do waves travel faster than S waves?
no p waves travel faster than s waves

How are water waves different from electromagnetic waves?
electromagnetic waves can travel through vacuum while water waves travel in water.
What do shear waves travel through?
Shear waves travel through solids. They cannot travel through liquids and gasses (unlike compressive waves) and they can't travel through a vacuum (unlike electromagnetic waves).
What type of wave requires no medium to travel through?
Waves need not require medium to travel through. Only Mechanical waves like sound waves require medium to travel through. Electromagnetic waves travel in vaccum like light waves. Some waves transmitted in a medium due to disturbances in the medium .
What can cause a beach to get smaller and smaller?
Waves.
What can sound waves not travel in?
sound waves can't travel in a vacuum (space)
