Which of the following is an example of an ocean wave?

a. longitudinal wave c. stationary wave b standing waves d. transverse wave​


Sagot :

Answer:

A

Explanation:

- An ocean wave is an example of a longitudinal wave.

- While waves that travel within the depths of the ocean are longitudinal waves, the waves that travel along the surface of the oceans are referred to as surface waves. A surface wave is a wave in which particles of the medium undergo a circular motion.

- In the open ocean or great lakes the waves are transverse: the water goes up and down. They are originated by the winds in the surface. Near the shore the waves become also longitudinal: the small distance from the the surface to the bottom of ocean make the difference

Transvese waves, they behave similarly to a wavelength having crests and troughs
