What is ocean energy?
It's the energy that we get using the movement of the waves
Is ocean waves harmonic motion?
In the middle of the ocean it is simple harmonic. But at the shores the energy would be diverted into lateral movement
What are the primary way that heat energy is transferred through the earth system?
air movements, storms, and ocean currentsthe primary ways that heat energy is transferred are air movement,storms,and ocean currents.
What are the advantages of using ocean thermal energy?
Thermal energy can be used in generating electricityNon-polluting, so doesn't cause global warming.Free, renewable and never-ending
Which of the following best describes the type of wave under the arrow in this picture?
The waves of the ocean are created by wind transferring energy in to the water.
What describes the movement of heat and energy in the global ocean?
n
Water is cooler near the poles and warmer near the equator Movement of cooler and warmer water from these regions moderates the global climate what describes the movement of water?
ocean currents
In the ocean Energy flow what is Global concentrations?
My topic is Ocean Energy Flow and my question is what is global concentrations.
What is energy from ocean water?
The energy produced by the movement of ocean water is Tidal Energy
What is ocean energy?
It's the energy that we get using the movement of the waves
What is the movement of water from the deep ocean to the surface?
Conveyor Belt Cycling describes the movement of the ocean water between surface and deep water.
Is ocean waves harmonic motion?
In the middle of the ocean it is simple harmonic. But at the shores the energy would be diverted into lateral movement
Why does the global ocean absorb much of the solar energy that reaches the earth?
Because it has a greater surface than land, and therefore absorbs more solar energy. Also because the ocean is generally colder than land (ocean has less thermal energy than land) , and higher energy goes to lower energy.
Where ocean water temperature depends on the solar energy an area receives and the water's?
And the water's movement.
Is ocean energy the same as tidal and wave energy?
Tidal energy refers to energy from the changing tides of the ocean, and wave energy refers to the energy carried in oceanic waves. Ocean energy is a very vague and incorrect term, although if you have heard it, it probably refers to those. There is lots of energy in the ocean, and to say ocean energy would be pretty ignorant. There is also energy in its living creatures, in its temperature differences, in the currents that affect global weather patterns. There is also energy in all the chemical bonds in every molecule of every single thing in the ocean that we simply choose to overlook.
