What is the medium through which an ocean wave will travel?
An ocean wave will travel through a medium of water, with the energy of the wave causing the water particles to move in a circular orbit as the wave passes through. This movement transfers the energy of the wave across the water's surface.
Can the wavelength of a wave be changed?
Yes, the wavelength of a wave can be changed by altering the frequency of the wave. This relationship is described by the equation speed = wavelength x frequency, so if the frequency changes, the wavelength will change accordingly to maintain the speed of the wave.
Why is an ocean wave a transverse wave?
An ocean wave is a transverse wave because the motion of the water particles is perpendicular to the direction of the wave propagation. As the wave passes through the water, the water particles move up and down in a vertical direction, while the wave itself travels horizontally.
what is the distance between the top and bottom of a wave in the ocean?
The distance between the top and bottom of a wave in the ocean is called the wave height. Wave height can vary depending on the strength of the wave and environmental factors, but it is typically measured from the trough (bottom) to the crest (top) of the wave.
Each particle of water in an ocean wave moves in a what?
Circular motion. Each water particle in an ocean wave moves in a circular path as the energy from the wave passes through.
Is an ocean wave mechanical wave?
Yes, an ocean wave is a mechanical wave, since the water is the medium of the wave.
When a wave passes through the ocean it does what?
When a wave passes through the ocean it may make a wave.
Is sandcastle a common noun?
Yes, sandcastle is a common noun.
What happens when water hits a sandcastle?
The sandcastle is swept away.
When did Operation Sandcastle happen?
Operation Sandcastle happened in 1955.
What wave is similar to an ocean's wave?
A sound wave
How long does it take for a wave to cross the ocean?
depends on the size of the wave and what ocean it is in
How has wave rock changed over the years?
Wave rock has changed over the years because it has changed colour
What ocean motion occurs when a wave strikes the bottom of the ocean?
A breaker wave, a surf.
How does the ocean wave wave?
gravity of course!
