As ocean waves approach shore, their velocity decreases. How does a decrease in velocity affect the frequency and wavelength of

the waves entering the shallow water?
Physics

Rashid [163]4 years ago

A decrease in velocity also causes a decrease in frequency and wavelength because if we manipulate the equation: v = f × wavelength, we can see that:

f = v / wavelength

wavelength = v / f

So in both cases the velocity is on the top. If the velocity decreases by a half for example then the wavelength and frequency will both decrease by a half because the velocity is proportional to the two values.

Maksim231197 [3]

Electric current is the movement of the electrons caused by potential difference. For example, in a circuit, the electrons in the bulb will not move without the potential difference or voltage. When there is voltage, electric current occurs because there is a driving force for the electrons in the wire to move.
