Answer:

A preamble is an introductory, usually ceremonial, part of the text of a written document (deeds, statutes or legal regulations, such as laws and constitutions), which sets out the intention, meaning or purpose of the following text after the preamble.

The preambles are usually contained in the constitutions of states. They contain both a historical part, which refers to previous state institutions and justifies the current state existence, and a part that contains the basic values and principles of the state and the general definition of fundamental rights and obligations of citizens. For legislation, the binding nature of the preambles is questionable, but it can always serve as an interpretative tool.

Why a tsunami often causes a rapid withdrawal?
guajiro [1.7K]
The shockwave from an undersea earthquake causes 'ripples' in the ocean which are very large swells. When the bottom of the swell touches land, it must build up higher to maintain it's size. Therefore when it approaches the beach, water is drawn away from the beach to compensate for the ocean depth getting shallower under the tsunami swell. More water is drawn from in front of the swell than behind due to the movement of the swell.
