What else can I help you with?
Explain why surface area is important to wave development?
Waves create more surface area for wind to "grip". This means that there is more area for the wind in transferring energy. More energy creates bigger waves.
What is a small wave called?
surface wave
What happens to a wave when it hits a surface?
When a wave hits a surface, it can be absorbed, reflected, or transmitted through the surface. The type of interaction depends on the properties of the surface and the wave itself. If the surface is smooth, the wave is more likely to be reflected; if the surface is rough, the wave might be absorbed or scattered in multiple directions.
What kind of wave is a surface wave?
Surface waves are transverse waves.
Which seismic wave causes damage to da surface?
The surface wave.
Which type of a wave is a surface wave?
a seismic wave
What is A type of wave?
Surface Wave
When a wave is coming toward a surface it is called a what?
When a wave is coming toward a surface, it is called an incident wave.
Which type of seismic wave travels on top of Earths surface?
A Surface Wave.
What is a wave base?
Wave base is the deepest point below the water surface at which the motion of water caused by a wave can reach. Beyond this point, water remains undisturbed by wave action. It is an important parameter in understanding coastal and marine processes.
What form does a wave front have A sine wave B surface of a sphere?
A wave front has a form that is a surface of a sphere.
What is it called when a wave's energy is lost to a surface making the wave weaker?
When a wave's energy is lost to a surface, resulting in the wave becoming weaker, it is called wave absorption or wave attenuation. This can occur when the wave interacts with the surface material and causes it to dissipate or absorb the energy of the wave.
