11. Hence the sound'ripples'move outwards in spherical patterns instead of circles as water waves do. 12. Deep-water waves travel to shore and become shallow water waves . 13. Waves moving through water deeper than half their wavelength are known as deep-water waves . 14. By this time, he had also become interested in the theory of water waves . 15. Besides frequency dispersion, water waves also exhibit amplitude dispersion. 16. For instance in : flow around aircraft, groundwater flow, acoustics, water waves , and electroosmotic flow. 17. This definition of interference directly applies to the interference of water waves and electric signals. 18. Waves in water shallower than 1 / 20 their original wavelength are known as shallow-water waves . 19. Why does a wave, like a water wave , spread out after passing through a thin slit? 20. With the ripple tank he demonstrated the idea of interference in the context of water waves .
