Question

sheila is camping with friends and is looking forward to taking them wakeboarding on a nearby lake. in the morning, there are small, short surface waves, but by noon, they have gotten bigger, and the water looks choppy. what types of waves have now formed? (1 point) surface waves lunar waves tidal waves capillary waves

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

Surface waves are waves that travel along the surface of a medium (here, water). Lunar waves are not a standard wave type. Tidal waves are large - scale ocean waves caused by gravitational forces (not just local wind - driven growth as described). Capillary waves are very small waves (usually less than 1.73 cm in wavelength) caused by surface tension. The description of waves getting bigger and the water looking choppy fits surface waves which can grow in size due to wind action over time.

Answer:

surface waves
