  • Information The type of wave motion which most people are familiar with are waves that occur on the free surface of water. In this type of wave motion the restoring force is gravity (sometimes surface tension needs to be considered as well, and in some situations surface tension can dominate gravity) and therefore these waves are known as surface gravity waves.
