Question

Which of the following statements correctly describe Tsunamis?

1. Tsunamis are often referred to as "seismic sea waves."
2. The word "Tsunami" originates from Japanese, meaning "harbor wave."
3. Tsunamis are characterized by a series of small waves with short wavelengths.
4. They are primarily generated by sudden displacements on the seafloor.

• A. രണ്ടും നാലും
• B. രണ്ട് മാത്രം
• C. ഒന്നും രണ്ടും നാലും
• D. ഒന്നും മൂന്നും

Answer 1

Answer:

C. ഒന്നും രണ്ടും നാലും

• Tsunamis are powerful ocean waves caused by large-scale disturbances, typically seismic events. Unlike regular wind-driven waves, tsunamis have extremely long wavelengths and periods, often tens to hundreds of kilometers long, and their entire water column from surface to seafloor is displaced, giving them immense energy and destructive potential upon reaching coastlines.
