can sum1 plzz reply if u kno Y SHALLOW WATER IS DENSER THAN DEEP WATER?!!! im havin this question for i-dont-kno-hw-long ...
dats xactly wat i thot but a ray bends towards normal wen it goes from deep 2 shallow water ..... nd a ray takes that path nly wen the second medium is denser
becuase i knew you will find me here tooy the hell r those letters 4??
plus read my statusbecuase i knew you will find me here too
sure if i do find itYeah right, when waves go through less dense medium it slows down, making it bend. which should be toward the normal i guess.
waves refract in the same way as light waves. When a wave is slowed down it bends towards the normal line and when it speeds up it bends away from the normal line.
Thats from my own knowledge, but I prefer asking your teacher if you have the chance. I will be thankful if you share the answer with us
iddiot u r... unlike u i am actually doin sum sincere studyin here (ive asked questions)becuase i knew you will find me here too
wat do u mean last message? ther r many messages after datplus read my status
k wateva .... still didnt get itstatus, on my wall by me
go to my wall idiot
Even I was thinking the same..must be lunaticy the hell r those letters 4??
yes it did..here's the link.Question no.27
young now u r oldi dont know i just know them from sm documantries i watched in national geographic when i was young
its pretty simple ..... i'll try my best 2 give u an easy explanation ...yes it did..here's the link.Question no.27

hope u find the answer
glad it helped ... dint think u cud actually understand wat i wrote .. it was confusing even wen i read it
... nyway UWgot it??
hey i checked it up nd this was what i gotYeah right, when waves go through less dense medium it slows down, making it bend. which should be toward the normal i guess.

hey i checked it up nd this was what i got
Density of water does NOT change .... it remains constant as density=mass/volume .... in shallow water volume decreases nd mass decreases ... in deep water mass increases while volume increases .... so density does not change from deep to shallow water
However, the most significant property that affects water waves is the depth of water ... they travel fastest in deepest water .... so they naturally slow down in shallow water... when a wave's speed decreases its wavelength also decreases nd thus, the ray bends towards normal
so the speed of water waves has got nothing to do with the density of water, but its depth!!!
hope u got my point
