Answer to Question 1

To most people an ocean wave in deep water appears to be a massive moving objecta ridge
of water traveling across the sea surface. An ocean wave is one of several kinds of waves, all
of which are disturbances caused by the movement of energy from a source through some
medium (solid, liquid, or gas). As the energy of the disturbance travels, the medium through
which it passes moves in specific ways. Sometimes this movement is visible to us as crests or
ridges in the medium. The traveling crests produce the appearance of movement we see in a
wave. In an ocean wave, a ribbon of energy is moving at the speed of the wave, but water is
not. In a sense, the wave is an illusion
