The moon's gravity causes the ocean's tides. The moon's gravity pulls on the earth at the same time the sun's gravity is, and so the Earth's oceans therefore creating low and high tides. Sounds complicated but the sun and moon's gravity both control the ocean tides
Gravity is still not perfectly understood, but formany purposes (apart from incosmology, etc.)it can bethought of asthe force of attraction between any twomasses. The mathematical equationfor thisforce is described by Newton's famous "UniversalLaw of Gravitation".
It is the force that keepsplanetsorbiting the Sun.It is also the mainforce that holdsa planet together.
Obviously, planets are not just points, but have a size in space. This means that there are small differences in the gravitational force felt at various points on a planet.
In the case of the Earth, our Moon (and to a smaller extent the Sun)causes tides in the oceans, because of this "differential gravity".Sometimesthis type of effect is simplycalled "tidal forces".
There are quite a few ways in which ocean currents can affect ocean water. These currents can change temperature for example.
The same way it affects all matter, it attracts it.
gravitational forces increases surface runoff and it couses natural hazards which afects water bodies eg avalanges,landslides and mudflows
Water uses gravity to flow in streams, waterfalls,and rivers.
Without gravity, everything including ocean water would fly anywhere if acted upon by an outside force.
Yes.

There are only two type of Ocean Currents: 1. Surface Currents- 10% of the water in the ocean 2. Deep Water Currents- 90% of the water in the ocean
Yes. Ocean currents affect world wide weather patterns, and weather affects Las Vegas.
weather currents would effect tugboats because the water would reel it in and the boat would not be able to move.
Temperature differences in water
the maritime current and the atlantic current :)
im thinking that the ocean water would be more heavy than the ocean currents
B. Ocean currents affect temperatures on land.
By bombs AOE
Warm Ocean currents warms the air above it and some move from the tropic towards both poles ---------------------------------------------------------AND----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Cold Ocean currents also affect weather patterns by bringing cold water from polar to the equator
Yes ocean currents do affect japan.
Winds affect ocean water by blowing the water across making ocean currents and changing the temperature. Catastrophic Events? Me too.
There are only two type of Ocean Currents: 1. Surface Currents- 10% of the water in the ocean 2. Deep Water Currents- 90% of the water in the ocean
The warm water currents in the ocean make the atmosphere warmer hence the climate of those regions become warmer.
It is easier and faster for ships to sail with the ocean currents.
deep ocean currents.

new york doesnt have ocean currents
