What happens to the height of the tsunami when its velocity is doubled?
Thats a simple question it gets higher...
What was the height of the tsunami in Japan 2011?
The Tsunami waves were around 10 meters (33 feet) high.AdditionallyThe tsunami waves were as high as 40.5 meters (133 ft) in Miyako.The tsunami was so powerful its waves traveled the entire Pacific ocean and were felt from the coasts of Alaska to that of Chile
How do you measure the strength of a tsunami?
The usual measure of a tsunami is the height of the wave just as it reaches the beach.
Why doesn't a tsunami wave break?
Tsunami waves have a much longer wavelength in proportion to their height than ordinary waves do. They are often miles long.
Why are tsunami waves in the open ocean limited in height?
Because width doesn't matter in a tsunami. The width is typically the length of the shore. It would be extremely difficult to classify a tsunami based upon height and width when the width is simply incomparable.

When does the height of a tsunami increase?
The height of a tsunami increases as it gets closer to the shoreline. It sort of "rolls" up the sea floor, pushing itself higher as it does so.

Will Japan's Earthquake bring a Tsunami to America?
Yes, to certain places in America. They have sent out tsunami alerts in places like Guam, California and Hawaii. In Hawaii the tsunami height is about 2.1m (6.9 ft).
How high can tsunami waves reach and what factors contribute to their maximum height?
Tsunami waves can reach heights of over 100 feet. The maximum height of a tsunami is influenced by factors such as the magnitude of the earthquake or underwater volcanic eruption that triggers it, the shape of the seafloor, and the distance the wave travels before reaching land.
What was the height and width of the tsunami that hit Japan?
The tsunami that hit Japan hit many parts of it. So there are a lot of different measurements. Please be more specific.
