Betty is sitting on of her surfboard out in the ocean. She is waiting for the perfect wave to come
along so she can ride it in to shore. As she waits, she notices that the waves roll by in patterns,

Betty is sitting on of her surfboard out in the ocean. She is waiting for the perfect wave to come
along so she can ride it in to shore. As she waits, she notices that the waves roll by in patterns,
or sets.Betty sees a large speed boat pass in the distance. The boat's motion causes small waves
to form and travel outward. What will most likely happen as the larger ocean waves approach
the waves created by the boat? D. The waves will momentarily create a new wave with a
crest higher than the original waves.
