Which one of the following best characterizes tsunamis? they cause the land to ripple and oscillate. they are faster than seismic surface waves. they have relatively small amplitudes compared to their very long wavelengths. they are easily seen at sea but are lost in the swell and breaking waves along a coast.

They have relatively small amplitudes compared to their very long wavelengths

Explanation:

Tsunamis describe large wave oscillations that are seen in coastal areas when there occurs an earthquake underwater. Tsunamis have extremely long wavelengths with large periods. They have high rising and falling time but have high velocity.

Their long wavelengths and high velocity enable them to hit the coastal land at an alarming rate in seconds. As the tsunami first propagates in the vast open ocean, the amplitude of tsunami decreases as the wave energy is spread into a much larger base area.

if interdependence implies a two-way dependence, and if each partner is equally dependent on the other for success, then there is an equal commitment to the making the partnership successful. the advantage is sustainability of the relationship, the disadvantage is that decisions are "democratic" and therefore may take longer to reach and more likely to be a compromise (which is not always the best solution). as the interdependence moves away from equality, the decisions become more influenced by the more independent partner. in the extreme the relationship becomes more dictatorial and more like "master-slave". generally the relationship has less commitment in both directions and is more likely to be temporary.

if one generalizes (and one shouldn't), equity partnerships, which is probably what is implied by interdependence, can be slow to progress or change but durable. the extreme alternative, independent-dependent partnerships tend to be efficient but more fragile.

hope this but you will have to site your own evidence. : )

so you know what happened be fore you were alive
