What happens to waves near the shore?

Physics
1 answer:
Lady_Fox [76]2 years ago
8 0

Answer As a wave travels across the open ocean, it gains speed. When a wave reaches a shallow coastline, the wave begins to slow down due to the friction caused by the approaching shallow bottom. ... Think of it like driving a car at high speed and then slamming on the breaks. Everything is going to fly to the front.:Waves at the Shoreline: As a wave approaches the shore it slows down from drag on the bottom when water depth is less than half the wavelength (L/2). The waves get closer together and taller. ... Eventually the bottom of the wave slows drastically and the wave topples over as a breaker. hope this helps have a nice night❤️❤️❤️
