The wind blows over the sea and causes small ripples. The water is forced into elliptical cycles which travel towards the shore.
Waves get their energy from the wind. The stronger the wind, the more energy the waves will have. If there is less wind, the waves will have less energy.
Area of ocean in which wind blows (fetch), wind velocity, and wind duration control the size of ocean waves.
Water waves are primarily caused by the wind, which generates energy through friction as it moves across the surface of the water. The strength and duration of the wind, as well as its fetch (the distance over water that the wind blows), directly influence the size and energy of the resulting waves. Additionally, atmospheric conditions, such as pressure changes and storms, can intensify wind patterns, leading to larger and more powerful waves.

yes when the waves roll in the ocean... what do you think makes the waves... wind!

The Sun doesn't create waves on the ocean and large bodies of water. The waves are caused by the wind.
da wind an da waves has somting 2 do with da ocean an da lake cuz it is da wind dat makes da ocean movebut if da wind 2 hard big waves come me no like big waves
the wind or earthquakes or the earth itself
Wind energy can generate waves by transferring energy from the wind to the water's surface. Stronger winds can create larger waves, while wind direction can influence wave direction and quality for surfers. Overall, wind energy plays a significant role in shaping wave conditions in the ocean.
I believe both play a factor in waves... I do know that if we didn't have the moon there would be no waves, tides, etc. therefore no life would have evolved. Wind just makes the waves, well... more wavier.
The wind and the temperature of the water makes it move, and the heavier it is the faster it moves.
Waves get their energy from the wind. The stronger the wind, the more energy the waves will have. If there is less wind, the waves will have less energy.
ocean waves get their energy from wind, the faster the wind and the longer the fetch the bigger the waves, low pressure systems, cold fronts and other weather systems generate most waves the sun is the main source of energy though it makes the wind stronger or weakerthey are energy
They travel the way they do because when the wind blows it makes waves and goes to the direction the wind is blowing.
the moon makes the waves move with gravitation. the moon pulls all the waves to come it's way using gravitation. and the other reason why the waves move is because the wind blows the waves. Natalie w.
