1.
The image illustrates water waves moving at an angle from deep water to shallow
water. The speed of the wave slows suddenly when entering the shallow water. The dashed
line is the barrier between the deep and shallow water. The solid lines indicate the wave peaks.
The arrows show the wave direction. Continue the lines for the wave peaks into the shallow
water. Also, put arrows on the wave peaks to show the direction the waves are travelling in the
shallow water.
