In water, a wave results from induced motion through gravity, tides, wind, current, or tectonics. The most familiar form of this wave is caused by the motion of moving water into shallower areas, as the upper flow moves forward while the lower flow goes more slowly, and possibly in the opposite direction.

What shows a red wave and a blue wave interfering constructively to form a purple wave?
When a red wave and a blue wave interfere constructively, they combine to form a purple wave. This occurs when the peaks of the red wave align with the peaks of the blue wave, reinforcing each other and creating a larger amplitude purple wave.
What is the bending of a wave as it enters a new material called?
The bending of a wave as it enters a new material is called refraction. This phenomenon occurs due to a change in the wave's speed as it moves from one medium to another, causing the wave to change direction.
What occurs when the crest of one wave overlaps the trough of another wave?
If a pulse "interferes" with another pulse, they build each other up to form supercrests or supertroughs. This process is known as constructive interference.
What type of wave motion is it when the wave bounces off a surface and returns?
The type of wave motion you are referring to is known as reflection. When a wave encounters a surface and bounces back, it is reflected. This phenomenon occurs in various types of waves, such as sound waves, light waves, and water waves.
The low point of a sound wave where the lowest air pressure occurs?
The low point of a sound wave, where the lowest air pressure occurs, is known as the trough. It is the point of the wave where air particles are farthest apart, leading to decreased air pressure. Sound waves consist of both high and low pressure points as they travel through a medium like air.
What is a series of compressions and refractions forms which a wave?
A wavefront is a series of compressions and refractions that form as a wave advances through a medium. This series of compressions and refractions represents the changing regions of high and low pressure as the wave travels.
What type of wave has refractions?
All types of waves can exhibit refraction, which occurs when the wave passes from one medium to another at an angle and changes its speed, causing it to bend. This bending of the wave is due to the change in the wave's velocity as it enters a different medium.
What atmospheric conditions can cause sound wave refractions similar to those observed in the ocean?
whenever a wave travels through a new median refraction occurs, this is true for any wave. For the example of sound waves, if the wave traveled into an area where the density of molecules in the air was lesser or greater, this new median would cause refraction to occur. This can be calculated using Snell's law, which is n1/n2=sin(x)1/sin(x)2=V1/V2. where n is the index of refraction, v is velocity, and x (usually theta is used in place of x) is the angle.
What actors and actresses appeared in Refractions - 2009?
The cast of Refractions - 2009 includes: Jonathan Turcotte as Dancer
Is nuclear energy produced by atomatic refractions?
Not that I know of. I'm not even sure what the word refractions would mean in this context.
What actors and actresses appeared in Refractions - 2013?
The cast of Refractions - 2013 includes: Savanna Dew Peter Pascucci Katie Shane
What is a wave that occurs at the surface betwene to mediums?
transverse wave
What type of interference occurs when the crests of one wave overlaps the crest of another wave?
constructive interference
What occurs when a wave strikes a boundary?
When a wave strikes a boundary, it can undergo reflection, transmission, or absorption. Reflection occurs when the wave bounces off the boundary and travels in the opposite direction. Transmission happens when the wave passes through the boundary and continues traveling in the same medium. Absorption occurs when the wave's energy is absorbed by the boundary material.
What part of an ecg do atria contract?
Atrial depolarization occurs at the P wave. The atrial contraction occurs at the peak of the wave at the influx of calcium ions to prolong depolarization.
What ocean motion occurs when a wave strikes the bottom of the ocean?
A breaker wave, a surf.
What can be used for different types of surgery.?
its not lasers are Diffractions it is refractions
