As waves in a lake approach the shore, they encounter shallower water, causing their speed to decrease. This reduction in speed results in the waves becoming taller and steeper, a phenomenon known as wave steepening. Eventually, when the waves become too steep, they break, creating surf and turbulence along the shoreline. The energy of the waves is dissipated as they interact with the bottom and the shore.
What else can I help you with?
Why do waves in a lake always appear to be moving toward the shore no matter where you stand on land?
Think about it. Its a lake. The waves have to move towards shore. The real answer is that boats that you dont see further out on the lake make waves that hit all sides of the lake and will travel the full length of the lake, no matter what size.
