The features of the wave and wave particles.
Introduction:
The oceans of the world are divided into the largest Pacific ocean, Atlantic Ocean, Antarctic or Southern and Indian ocean. The rest 29% of the area is covered by the landmasses that form the continents. The ocean water undergoes high and low tides due to the gravitational pull from sun and moon.
Explanation of Solution
Pictorial representation: Fig.1 represents the features of the waves and wave particles.
Fig.1: The features of the waves and wave particles.
The wave crest and trough are the high and low in the waves. The wave particles undergo circular motion inside the wave from the source of the wave to the shore. The distance between one crest to one trough is called wavelength of the wave. The surf zone of the wave is the region when the wave is about to touch the shore. The velocity of the wave decreases as it reaches the shore due to the distance from the source of the wave and increased resistance.
