Tips. 1  Full-grown Chihuahuas generally don't get to be above 6 to 9 inches tall. 2  If yours is taller than that, either as a puppy or an adult, he may be a mixed breed. 3  Don't use color as an indication of your dog's breed, as both short-and long-haired Chihuahuas can come in practically any color.

Factors Affecting Wave Speed. The speed of any wave depends upon the properties of the medium through which the wave is traveling. Typically there are two essential types of properties that affect wave speed - inertial properties and elastic properties.
Water waves travel fastest when the medium is the deepest. Thus, if water waves are passing from deep water into shallow water, they will slow down. And as mentioned in the previous section of Lesson 3, this decrease in speed will also be accompanied by a decrease in wavelength. So as water waves are transmitted from deep water into shallow water, the speed decreases, the wavelength decreases, and the direction changes. This boundary behavior of water waves can be observed in a ripple tank if the tank is partitioned into a deep and a shallow section. If a pane of glass is placed in the bottom of the tank, one part of the tank will be deep and the other part of the tank will be shallow.
