Tsunami

Real World Example

Imagine you're carrying a tray filled with glasses of water, and someone suddenly bumps into you from behind. This unexpected jolt causes the water in the glasses to spill over the edges, creating a mess on the floor. Similarly, a tsunami occurs when an underwater earthquake gives a sudden jolt to the ocean floor, causing massive waves to overflow onto the shore. Just as the bump to the tray transfers energy to the water, the earthquake transfers energy to the ocean, resulting in powerful waves that can travel vast distances.
