wave speed is computed from square root of quantity water depth times the acceleration of gravity.speed at which tsunamis travel depend on the ocean depth.a tsunami can exceed 500 mph in 15,000 feet of water but slows to 40 feet or less in 100 feet of water

Wave speed is computed from the square root of the quantity water depth times the acceleration of gravity. The speed at which tsunamis travel depends on the ocean depth. A tsunami can exceed 500 mph in 15,000 feet of water but slows to 40 feet or less in 100 feet of water. In less than 24 hours a tsunami can cross the entire Pacific Ocean.
