What is the ridge of sand built up by the action of waves and currents?
it is called a sandbar
A ridge of sand built up by currents in a river or coastal waters?

What is a barrier sand bar?
# A ridge of sand formed in a river or along a shore by the action of waves or currents. # A long mass or low ridge of submerged or partially exposed sand built up in the water along a shore or beach by the action of waves or currents. -dictionary.com
Sandy island that forms near the coast?
A sandbar is a temporary, underwater or exposed ridge of sand, gravel, or shell material that is built up by currents in a river or by waves on a beach. It typically forms near the coast and can disappear or change shape depending on tides and currents.
Can all waveforms be built up from sine waves?
yes

What is the three basic motions of ocean water?
The three ways the ocean moves in are currents, tides, and waves. I figured this out while I was doing homework. Maybe it does help you learn. :)
Are beaches deposition or erosion?
Beaches can experience both deposition and erosion. Deposition occurs when sand and sediment are deposited on the beach by waves and currents, building up the beach. Erosion occurs when waves and currents remove sand and sediment from the beach, causing it to shrink or erode.
What is a delta built up by?
A delta is built up by sediment transported by a river and deposited at its mouth where the river meets a body of standing water, such as a lake or ocean. Over time, these deposits accumulate and form a triangular or fan-shaped landform.
Which to spheres interact to produce waves and currents?
A. - the geosphere and biosphere B. - the biosphere and hydrosphere C. - the cryosphere and atmosphere D. - the atmosphere and hydrosphere - Pick any of these answers but to be smart... Go search them up and you will learn. :)
How do ocean currents differ from ocean waves?
Ocean currents are large-scale movements of seawater driven by factors such as wind, temperature differences, and the Earth's rotation, flowing continuously over long distances. In contrast, ocean waves are short-term disturbances on the water's surface caused primarily by wind, creating rhythmic up-and-down motions. While currents transport water and heat across vast areas, waves primarily transfer energy and can vary significantly in height and frequency. Essentially, currents are about the movement of water itself, while waves are about the energy moving through the water.
What type of ocean wave moves the fastest?
Tsunamis are the fastest ocean waves, traveling across the ocean at speeds of up to 500-600 miles per hour. This is much faster than wind-generated waves or currents.
