The equation s = 356d models the maximum speed that a tsunami can move at. It reads as follows: s = 200 km/h d =?
Let's now change s to s in the equation to determine d: s = 356√d 200 = 356√d √d = 200 ÷ 356 √d = 0.562 Let's square the equation now by squaring both sides: (√d)² = (0.562) ² d = (0.562)² = 0.316 ≈ 0.32
As a result, 0.32 km is roughly the depth (d) of water for a tsunami moving at 200 km/h.
Wood frogs have this adaptation where they accumulate urea in their bodies and convert their liver glycogen to glucose to act as cryoprotectants. This prevents the formation of ice crystals in their bodies that could cause damage cells during freezing in winter.
The only real difference is that common seismic waves travel through the ground and sound waves travel through the air. If you had a pipe attached to granite and you were listening to it, you might detect both.
