Is the size of a wave affected by the strength of the wind?

Yes, the size of a wave is affected by the strength of the wind. Stronger winds will generate larger waves, and calmer winds will result in smaller waves. The longer the wind blows over the water's surface, the larger the waves can become.


Does the amount of water affect the size of a wave?

Yes, the amount of water affects the size of a wave. Waves form and grow as wind transfers energy to the water's surface, causing it to ripple and eventually build into waves. Therefore, the greater the volume of water being affected by the wind, the larger the wave size can become.


Why the wave length does not affect the wave speed?

Because it only resembles the wavelength, the speed is how fast the wave travels. two waves of the same size can travel at the same speed Wave speed is affected by a combination of wavelength and frequency, not just one alone.


What are waves that are about the size of a virus?

a wave that is about the size of a virus is ultraviolet a wave.


What two things that can affect the amount of diffraction of a wave?

The amount of diffraction of a wave is affected by the wavelength of the wave and the size of the obstacle or opening it encounters. Waves with longer wavelengths exhibit more diffraction, and smaller obstacles or openings lead to more diffraction of the wave.


What factors affect the intensity of an electromagnetic wave?

The intensity of an electromagnetic wave is affected by factors such as the amplitude of the wave, the frequency of the wave, and the distance from the source of the wave.


What factor affects the amount of diffraction that is seen?

The amount of diffraction that is seen is affected by the wavelength of the wave and the size of the obstacle or opening through which the wave passes. Smaller wavelengths and larger obstacles or openings lead to more noticeable diffraction effects.


What part of the water is affected by a wave in deep water?

The water molecules of a deep-water wave move in a circular motion. The diameter of the motion decreases with the distance from the surface. The motion is felt down to a distance of approximately one wavelength, where the wave's energy becomes negligible.


Why doesn't the amplitude effect the speed of a wave?

The speed of a wave is determined by the medium through which it travels and not affected by the wave's amplitude. The amplitude of a wave only influences the wave's intensity or energy.


Can WiFi be affected by FM?

No, they operate on different wave lengths.


Why are tsunamis measured?

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.


Is the wave of speed dependent on the amplitude?

No, the speed of a wave is not dependent on the amplitude. The speed of a wave is determined by the properties of the medium through which the wave is traveling and is not affected by the wave's amplitude.
