Breaking waves appear white because air bubbles within the water reflect sunlight, creating a frothy appearance. The turbulence and churning action of the waves also contribute to the scattering of light, making them appear white when viewed from a distance.
When waves crash against the shore, they appear as foamy, white crests that break and dissipate as they hit the land.
When an object reflects all light waves, it appears white to the human eye. This is because white light consists of all the colors in the visible spectrum, so by reflecting all light waves, the object is reflecting all colors and appears white.
The region between breaking waves and the shore is known as the surf zone. This area is characterized by turbulent water movement and breaking waves as they approach the shoreline. It is where wave energy dissipates and influences nearshore sediment transport.
Waves have whitecaps when the wind causes the water surface to become rough and create bubbles and foam. These whitecaps are formed by the breaking crest of the waves as they move across the ocean surface.
Surf or breakers.
Whitecaps are large ocean waves that have prominent "caps" of white bubbles on their breaking crests.
What are the features of non breaking waves
The duration of Breaking the Waves is 2.63 hours.
the breaker zone is where the waves are breaking while the surf is where the waves are more calm...

No, a tsunami is a series of waves caused by a sudden disturbance, such as an earthquake or underwater volcanic eruption. The waves can vary in size and may appear as a rapidly advancing tide or a series of breaking waves.

White foam waves are a mixture. Foam is typically formed by the introduction of air or gas bubbles into a liquid, such as water, creating a collection of water molecules and air/gas bubbles that appear white due to light scattering.
