What is the biggest wave in the ocean?
A rogue wave. One once measured up to 1740 feet.
What is the average size of a wave?
The average size of a wave varies depending on location, weather conditions, and ocean depth. In general, ocean waves can range from a few feet to over 30 feet in height.
How tall is an ordinary wave in the ocean?
about 2 to 3 feet tall.
What is the wave height that most ocean liners can withstand?
twelve feet
What powers a wave?
A wave is powered by energy transferred from a source. In the case of ocean waves, the primary source of energy is the wind transferring its energy to the water's surface causing waves to form and propagate.
Is an ocean wave mechanical wave?
Yes, an ocean wave is a mechanical wave, since the water is the medium of the wave.
When a wave passes through the ocean it does what?
When a wave passes through the ocean it may make a wave.
What wave is similar to an ocean's wave?
A sound wave
How long does it take for a wave to cross the ocean?
depends on the size of the wave and what ocean it is in
What is the average height of a wave in the Southern Ocean?
The average height of waves in the Southern Ocean typically ranges from about 3 to 5 meters (10 to 16 feet), although wave heights can occasionally exceed 10 meters (33 feet) during severe storms. This ocean is known for its strong winds and expansive fetch, contributing to the generation of larger waves. Variability in wave height can occur based on seasonal changes and specific weather conditions.
What ocean motion occurs when a wave strikes the bottom of the ocean?
A breaker wave, a surf.
How does the ocean wave wave?
gravity of course!
