WASP Topic
For my topic for my WASP I have chosen Tsunamis. My main question is what causes tsunamis? For my model I want to make a miniture tsunami. I will make a beach and get a wave to hit it.
My other questions will be:
What does the word tsunami mean?
How big are tsunamis?
How fast can they travel?
How powerful are they?
How far can they travel?
What's the difference between a tsunami and a title wave?
What are the signs of an approaching tsunami?
Are there areas in the world have the most tsunamis?
If so why is this?
What happens when a tsunami meets the shore?
Can tsunamis be prevented?
What are the safetey procedures when a tsunami hits?
What warnings are given out when a tsunami is coming?
What has been the biggest tsunami recorded and where and when did it hit?
What is the aftermath of an tsunami?
What affect does it have on the enviroment?
