Name and describe two kinds of currents that wave action can cause near shore?
Two kinds of currents that wave action can cause near shore are "Longshore Current", which is the overall direction and movement of the waves that strike the shore at an angle. The other kind of current is "Rip Currents", which are narrow streams of water that break through sandbars and drain rapidly back to sea.
Is it more likely that a hurricane will strike in may or march?
A hurricane is more likely to strike in May, when the oceans are warmer, than in March. But even in May hurricanes are unusual.

What is right hand rule in geology?
There are two different right hand rules...American right hand rule: Looking to the strike direction, the bed dips to the right. In our example, that would fit with 000/45. So, looking to the north, the bed dips to the right, to 090 (east).British right hand rule: The thumb of the right hand indicates the dip direction, and the heal points to the strike direction. So in our example, we would record the orientation as 180/45. That is: Strike towards 180 (perfect south bearing), and dip of 45º towards 090.
Where rocks on opposite sides of fault move in opposite directions or in the same direction at direction rates?
strike slip fault
What does LED do?
A diode is a semiconductor device which allows current to flow in only one direction, thru its P-type and N-type junction. When current flows thru an LED, electrons strike material which releases photons, causing visible light to be emitted. See link.
