Aside from water and energy, the two main parts of a wave are its CREST , the area that is farthest from the Earth's core, and its TROUGH, the part of the wave that forms just before it gives way to the next crest.

When two or more waves combine, their energies are combined. In an open Ocean when several crests come together simultaneously Rogue Waves are formed. These can be ten or more meters in height.

It should be noted that ocean/sea/river are not the only places where waves can be found. Sound is example another example of waves [waves in air]

A wave is the movement of energy from one place to another without the transfer of mass [a wave moves through a medium (like water) but the water does not move along with the energy] There are examples where thinking about waves in this way does not help but this can be useful for visualising waves and how they move.

What seismic wave travels through all parts of earth?

P-waves, or primary waves, are seismic waves that can travel through all parts of the Earth, including solids, liquids, and gases. They are compressional waves that cause particles in the material they pass through to move back and forth in the same direction as the wave. This ability to travel through both the Earth's solid inner core and the liquid outer core distinguishes P-waves from S-waves, which only move through solids.


How many parts of electromagnetic spectrum are used for communications?

Various parts of the electromagnetic spectrum are used for communications, including radio waves, microwaves, and light waves (in the form of fiber optics). These different parts of the spectrum are utilized for different types of communications depending on factors like distance, bandwidth, and signal strength requirements.

What are light waves and label the parts?

Light waves are electromagnetic waves that carry energy and information. They consist of electric and magnetic fields oscillating perpendicular to each other and to the direction of wave propagation. The parts of a light wave include the wavelength (distance between wave peaks), frequency (number of wave cycles per second), and amplitude (height of the wave).
