How long and strongly the wind blows. I know that for a fact. Trust me.
A sound wave
A tsunami is an ocean wave caused by an earthquake.It is not a tidal wave.
The energy moves, not the water
A wave caused by a sudden shift in the ocean floor is called a tsunami.
you need to know what size was the wave that caused the destruction and for reasons of statistics. you have a wave size and you get an earthquake wich epicenter is in the sea, you know what size of wave to spect in the coast and the time to evaquate.
depends on the size of the wave and what ocean it is in
The ocean...
The average size of a wave varies depending on location, weather conditions, and ocean depth. In general, ocean waves can range from a few feet to over 30 feet in height.
Yes, an ocean wave is a mechanical wave, since the water is the medium of the wave.
The number of ocean waves that pass a buoy in one second is referred to as the wave frequency or wave period, which is typically measured in hertz (Hz) or seconds. The specific value will depend on the wave conditions at that particular location and time.
In an ocean wave, water particles move in a circular motion. As the wave passes through, water particles move in an elliptical path, with the motion decreasing in size as it gets deeper. The circular motion of water particles is what helps transport energy across the ocean surface.
The size of a wave depends on the wavelength, amplitude, and frequency. Wavelength refers to the distance between two successive points on a waveform, amplitude is the height of the wave, and frequency is the number of waves that pass a point in a given time.
When a wave passes through the ocean it may make a wave.
Mainly the strenght of the wind passing over the water. Also the fetch, or distance that a wave has to develope. Finally, the beach profile will also effect the size and how the wave breaks.
Wave properties depend on the medium through which the wave is travelling, the amplitude of the wave, the frequency of the wave, and the wavelength of the wave. These properties determine how the wave behaves and interacts with its surroundings.
the sizes of the oceans depend on how large does each continent have and the ocean takes up 75% of the earth.
Waves are mechanical energy that has been transferred mostly from wind. The factors that determine the size of an ocean wave made by the wind are: time of contact, velocity of wind and the fetch-distance over which wind is in contact with water.
