What is the motion of particles or floating objects on the surface of the water wave?
Particles or floating objects on the surface of a water wave move in a circular motion as the wave passes beneath them. This circular motion is a combination of the wave's horizontal movement and the vertical oscillation of the particle due to the wave's up and down motion.
What indicates that a water wave transfers energy to a floating object?
When a water wave approaches a floating object, the object will start to oscillate or bob up and down due to the transfer of energy from the wave to the object. This transfer of energy causes the object to move in response to the passing wave.
A floating leaf oscillates up down two complete cycle each second as a water wave passes by what is the waves frequency?
Say what! the question no makey sense to moi
A wave can make a leaf bob up and down on the water but it cannot move the leaf towards the shore. This is because waves only transfer?
energy and not matter. The wave's energy causes the leaf to move up and down, but it does not carry the leaf with it towards the shore.
Why does a wave move toward the shore but the leaf floating on the surface of the water doesnt?
Waves are generated by the wind and transfer energy to the water, causing it to move towards the shore. The leaf, however, is subject to different forces such as surface tension, buoyancy, and wind resistance, which may counteract the motion of the waves, keeping it in place on the water's surface.
Why do waves move toward the shore but the leaf floating on the surface of the water does not?
The wave travels through the water without moving the water with it (the water moves but then as the wave passes the water moves back to where it was). The floating leaf stays with the water as the wave passes on its way to the shore.
If a transverse wave of energy travels through the water in this pond how will the floating leaf be moved It?
Move up and down but stay in the same position
How does the transverse wave carry the medium?
Transverse waves, or any type, don't carry the medium with them. If you have ever seen a duck floating on top of the water when a wave comes, you will know what I mean. The wave brings the duck up, but the duck remains in the same spot.

What is a round floating leaf?
A round floating leaf is a plant leaf that is adapted to float on the surface of the water. These leaves are often circular in shape and have a waxy surface to help them repel water. This adaptation allows the plant to absorb sunlight and nutrients efficiently from the water.
What is the scientific name of floating leaf plants?
The scientific name for floating leaf plants is Hydrophytes. These plants have adaptations that allow them to float on water and absorb nutrients through their roots submerged in water.
Why does the leaf stalk of water hyacinth have swellings?
Swollen leaf stalk of water hyacinth keep this herb floating in water. The animals getting trapped in the water body containing water hyacinth escape from drowning due to floating herb by its swollen leaf stalk.
Why is a coin placed in a floating leaf cup?
To make the trophy look cooler.

Why a wave moves toward the shore but the leaf floating on the surface of the water does not?
The wave is not a current. The energy gets transmitted from one part of the water to another. A good comparison is a row of glass marbles - if another glass marble bumps into the first marble in the row, the LAST one will move away from the group. I strongly suggest you try it out. What happens here is that the energy gets transmitted from one marble to the next (in this case, it happens rather quickly). The situation in the water wave is similar. The energy gets transmitted, without the water itself moving (as it would in a current). The leaf is at the surface of the water wave. Deep in the water, the water wave is more of a compressive wave. At the surface, it is more of a transverse wave. At the surface, the water moves up and moves down, but it doesn't move longitudinally. The leaf follows the surface -- up and down.
