What are waves are caused by?
Waves are caused by wind hitting the surface of the water. They are caused by earthquakes too.
How do water and wind shape the landforms?
Waves
How does water erode the shorelines?
As water hits the coastline it slowly takes dirt and sediments back into the ocean with it causing the erosion process. Also if it rains and water runs off the coastline it is able to carry sediments that way.
Most surface waves are caused by the action of 'earthquakes' or 'winds'?
Most surface waves are caused by wind systems. Earthquakes cause tsunamis.
Where do Surface waves get their energy from?
The Sun and the Moon gravitational pull on the earth causes high and low tides which give the ocean waves their energy. Ocean waves get their energy from wind blowing across the surface of the water. When the wind contacts the water, some of its energy is transferred.
Water waves are caused by wind which is directly caused by the. Of the sun?
energy
Where does the energy in waves come most directly from?
If you mean water waves, those are usually caused by the wind. For other waves - well, it really depends on the specific situation.
What are waves are caused by?
Waves are caused by wind hitting the surface of the water. They are caused by earthquakes too.
How are lake waves created?
Waves on an inland lake is caused by the wind. The stronger the wind blows across open water, the rougher and higher the waves.
How does the sun makes waves?
The Sun doesn't create waves on the ocean and large bodies of water. The waves are caused by the wind.
What agents of erosion are caused by gravity?
Wind,Running Water,Glaciers, and Waves!
How are Waves are carriers of energy?
Waves are carriers of energy because waves are caused by energy flowing through the water making them move in a wavy motion. The waves are also caused by the wind blowing on the top of the water.
Most surface waves are caused by?
Most surface waves are caused by wind. Tsunamis are formed by heat and circular wind motions. Tidal waves are caused by hurricanes with huge wind currents.
Surface waves are caused by?
They are caused by wind.
What are the waves on the surface of the ocean most caused by?
The wind transfering some energy to the water and forming waves. Hence when its windier, you get bigger waves
What agents of erosion are in part caused by the force of gravity?
running water, wind, glaciers and waves
What is the water in the oceans pulled by?
As far as tides it is th pull of the moon's gravity, but waves can be caused by wind.
