Can hurricane winds cause a tsunami?
No, tsunamis are not related to weather at all. Tsunamis are usually caused by the deformation of the seabed, such as from an earthquake, landslide, or volcanic eruption. Tsunamis are structurally different from wind-driven waves.
How has the greenhouse effect affected British weather?
The normal greenhouse effect keeps Britain warm (with help from the Gulf Stream). The enhanced greenhouse effect is causing global warming and climate change. This is changing weather patterns leading to heat waves, and different and more extreme weather conditions.
Can waves or wind erode and deposit larger particles?
true
What might you observe with a radio telescope that you couldn't observe with an optical telescope?
Object that only shine with radio waves and not in the visible spectrum an object hidden by dust that block visible light.
Which object observe light?
Living beings which have eyes can observe light. Nature has endowed the human eye with the sensitivity to detect electromagnetic waves within a small range of electromagnetic spectrum.
What causes a beat frequency?
Beats are caused by the interaction of two waves with different periods. The Waves crests do not line up every oscillation, but when they do, they have a much larger than normal crest, which results in an observable beat.
Why you can not easy to observe interference effect in the light waves?
Light waves are fairly small, compared to our everyday experience.
What are supersonic waves?
Supersonic waves are waves that can travel faster than normal sound waves.
What is the effect of wind energy on waves?
It makes large waves larger.
What is waves used for?
radio waves are used in tv communication, weather broadcasting
Where do rouge waves occur?
Anywhere normal waves occur.
Can Doppler's Effect only be observed in sound waves?
No. We observe the Doppler Effect in all forms of waves, including sound waves and all forms of electromagnetic radiation.
What weather dose a altocumulus do?
Accumulators shows the ripples and waves int he weather. This is how they what the weather is going to be like.
Why does weather affect radio waves?
yes is does
What causes oceans waves?
Normal (i.e. not tsunami) waves on the ocean are caused by the wind blowing over the ocean surface. The wind transfers some of its energy to the water surface, through friction between the air molecules and the water molecules. Stronger winds caused by storms result in larger waves and the larger the stretch of ocean over which the wind is blowing, the larger the waves.The winds cause waves on the surface of the ocean (and on lakes). The wind transfers some of its energy to the water, through friction between the air molecules and the water molecules. Stronger winds (like storm surges) cause larger waves. You can make your own miniature waves by blowing across the surface of a pan of water.
Can hurricane winds cause a tsunami?

What did ships do in bad weather?
they have to be care full waves. They must sail when the weather is good.
