Activity 12.2 deep-versus shallow-water waves refer to figure 12.1 to answer the following questions. 1. do particles in deep-water waves trace out circular or elliptical paths? 2. near the shore in shallow water, do water particles trace out circular or elliptical paths? 3. in shallow water, are water particles in the wave crest ahead of or behind those at the bottom of the wave? 4. as waves approach the shore, do their heights increase or decrease? do wavelengths become longer or shorter? their heights and their wavelengths become 5. in the surf zone, is the water in the crest of a wave falling forward or standing still? an 6. what is the velocity of deep-water waves that have a wavelength of 46 meters and a wave period of 6.3 seconds? wavelength (l) 40m velocity wave period (t) 6.3 sec m/sec 7. at what water depth will a deep-water wave with a wavelength of 46 meters begin to feel bottom m 8. at what water depth will the wave described in question 7 begin to break? 0. what two factors determine how far from the shoreline waves will begin to break itunes 1. do particles in deep-water waves trace out circular or elliptical paths? 2. near the shore in shallow water, do water particles trace out circular or elliptical paths? 3. in shallow water, are water particles in the wave crest ahead of or behind those at the be 4. as waves approach the shore, do their heights increase or decrease? do wavelengths by shorter? their heights and their wavelengths become 5. in the surf zone, is the water in the crest of a wave falling forward or standing still? 6. what is the velocity of deep-water waves that have a wavelength of 46 meters and a wave 6.3 seconds? wavelength (2) 40 m velocity wave period (t) m/sec 6.3 sec 7. at what water depth will a deep water wave with a wavelength of 46 meters begin to feel be m 8. al what water depth will the wave described in question 7 begin to break? 9. what two actors determine how far from the shoreline waves will begin to break?
