What causes a seismic sea wave?

A wind-generated wave causes a wave speed to be 50 knots at a far distance away.?

  • This wave meets with an unanchored fishing boat. If the boat's original speed was 0 knots, how fast will the boat's final speed be? -0 knots -25 knots -50 knots -100 knots

  • Answer:

    0 knots if at sea or ocean (middle of sea or ocean). -But If this boat is right by the shoreline it will be higher than zero knots because the wave is rising from the body of water and hitting the shore bottom. -thus the boat cannot go faster than the wave is already at. (if at shoreline).
