Answer to Question 1

ANS: T
Some of the energy distributed into smaller waves ahead and behind the main wave. The coasts were
besieged by these series of waves that were arriving at constant intervals. Information can be found in
the section Water Displacement Causes Tsunamis and Seismic Sea Waves.



Answer to Question 2

ANS: T
Sometimes these wave trains subtract from one another and other times they add to one another. This
is called interference which can be constructive or destructive. Information can be found in the section
Interference Produces Irregular Wave Motions.
