It has a constant shape. docsity.com Video Demonstration:  Demo 2.1 – Waves & Wake from Phys123 docsity.com SHOCK WAVES  Just as circular waves move out from a swimming bug, spherical waves move out from a flying object. If the object flies faster than the waves, the result is a cone-shaped shock wave.  There are two booms, one from the front of the flying object and one from the back. docsity.com Video Demonstrations: docsity.com docsity.com Good Surf Days:  There are two main factors that determine how good the surf will be.  First, there are the conditions that lead to initial wave formation. These determine the quality and size of the ground swell that will hit the surf spot.  The second main factor is the local conditions at the surf spot. These have to be right to ensure the swell can create quality waves. Let's look at both of these factors in turn. docsity.com Factors which produce waves:  There are three main factors  Wind Speed - The greater the wind speed the larger the wave.  Wind Duration -The longer the wind blows the larger the wave.  Fetch - The greater the area the wind affects the larger the wave. docsity.com  Where it all begins:  Offshore storms generate winds.  The ocean would be almost completely flat without wind. docsity.com  The stronger and longer the wind blows, the more effect it has on these ripples and the larger they become. Initially the waves will just be small chop, but these will soon increase in size. docsity.com  As the wind continues to blow and the waves generated remain under the influence of the wind, the smaller waves will increase in size. The wind will get hold of the small waves much more easily than the calm sea surface.  The wave size is dependent on the wind speed generating it. A certain wind speed will only be able to generate a wave of certain size. Once the largest waves that can be generated for a given wind speed have formed, the seas are "fully formed." docsity.com When everything is right: docsity.com docsity.com Nova Scotia  Nova Scotia is quickly becoming a surf destination for surfers around the world.  Especially late August into October for hurricane season. docsity.com
