4. 4 QuestionsNotes/Answers How were you affected by the tsunami that hit Japan & Hawaii on March 11-12, 2011? Mrs. Riels Answer: As soon as I heard that a tsunami was coming, I went on my cell phone and looked up the tsunami inundation maps for Ewa Beach. I figured out that our house wasnt in the flood zone, so my husband and I decided to sleep through the sirens and warnings. We were woken up by his mother screaming that we needed to evacuate, but since we did our research, we assured her that we would be safe at home. 2. Surfs Up….Way Up Reflection

5. 5 Why is it nearly impossible to float to shore from the middle of the ocean? Waves dont push you. You will just bob up and down in the same place. 3. Surfs Up….Way Up Video: Ocean Waves 4. What can waves transmit across the sea? Energy is the only thing that waves can transmit across the sea.

Then describe the child function in terms of waves. 15. Wave Functions

12. 12 Surfs Up….Way Up Child Function Amplitude: 1/2 Period: 1 (wavelength is 1) Phase Shift: -3 (shifted right) Vertical Shift: -1 (shifted down) The child wave is half as tall as the parent wave, but traveling at the same speed. The child wave began closer to shore in shallower water. Analyze the two sine functions and describe their differences in terms of amplitude, period, phase shift, and vertical shift. Then describe the child function in terms of waves. 16. Wave Functions

13. 13 Surfs Up….Way Up If the amplitude (A) were zero, there would be no wave height. If the period (B) were zero, there would be no wavelength. Without wave height or length, there would be no waves. The ocean would be completely flat. Explain what would happen to the waves if A or B were zero. 17. Wave Functions

14. 14 Surfs Up….Way Up Catch a Wave Activity Gentle slopes create spilling breakers that provide surfers with long, smooth rides. Moderate slopes create plunging breakers that form barrels for surfers to ride through. Steep slopes create surging breakers that smash into the beach. They dont create any surf. Describe how the slope of the seafloor controls the way a wave breaks. 18.

15. 15 Surfs Up….Way Up Catch a Wave Activity Surging breakers will cause the most erosion because they slam into the coast with a lot of force. Which type of breaker will cause the most coastal erosion? 19. Spilling breakers will take the longest time to reach the shore.
