Do the energy in waves move water particles forward?
Not really.The individual water particles in a wave move in a circle (up, forward, down, backward) with very little net resulting travel.
What direction do particles in water wave move?
Water is a very unique object in our galaxy. Water, when frozen actually expands and the molecules rotate in place. Water in the liquid state moves in ripples if disturbed. The force of the pressure from the object on the surface of water is the cause that makes the water move in that pattern. The disturbed H2O molecules move away from the area of pressure.
How is the rate of motion of an object affected by an increased in force applied to it?
If a small child was to push you in the back, you won't move forward very far, maybe a step or two. If a burly male was to push you in the back, I assume you will move forward suddenly and far, even more than two or three steps.
How do ice water molecules differ from warm water molecules?
The main difference is that ice water molecules have very low kinetic energy, i.e. they don't move very fast, compared to warm water molecules. The other difference is in the intermolecular forces holding the molecules together. They are greater in ice than in warm water.
Does glass move?
Yes, glass moves but very, very slowly! It is a liquid.
Water in a wave move in a what but not very far forward?

Why would it be very difficult to drop a note in a bottle off of a boat into the waves and have it reach shore?

Do tortoises move?

How does water molecules move through the water cycle?
it moves very slowly
How do you play the flute HeartGold?

What does a squid use for support?
The water around it. Out of water they don't move very well
How does a water bear move?
They breath with lungs.
Why don't waves move the water very far?
Wind creates waves. Waves don't move water very far because the wind doesn't push it very hard, wind isn't forceful enough.
How do you get the flute in Pokemon Soul Silver?
Talk to a guy in the Radio Station in Lavender Town, and he will give you a special app. Then, move the little white circle to the very top of the bigger circle.
What is a sentence for foreward?
If you meant the word "forward":Move forward a bit please.I will forward this email.If you meant the word "foreword":The foreword in this book is very touching.I was asked to write a foreword for a popular anthology.
Does a squid move?
Yes! They can glide very rapidly through the water.
