What else can I help you with?
What do you call the length of water over which the wind blows?
the length of water over which the wind has blown is called the fetch
What determines how strong an earthquake will be?
1. Wind strength and duration 2. Fetch of the wave
What is A wind that blows from east to west called?
A wind that blows from west to east is called a westerly wind. The direction of origin is the name of the wind.
Why is sound made when the wind blows through telephone wires?
1.The wind blows hard to create a sound so when the wind blows the wires start shaking and making another sound so together they make a loud sound. 2. When the wind blows through the telephone wires the wind blows the wires forcing them to vibrate. so technically because the wind makes the telephone wires vibrate. your welcome.
Which wind blows from the south towards the north?
The wind that blows from the south towards the north is called a south wind. It moves in the opposite direction to the usual north wind.
What factor affect wind wave development?
Wind speed, fetch (distance over which the wind blows), and duration of time the wind blows are key factors that affect the development of wind waves. These factors determine the height, length, and speed of the waves generated by the wind.
What do you call the length of water over which the wind blows?
the length of water over which the wind has blown is called the fetch
How does the length of time the wind blows over water affect amount of energy in a wave?
They result from the wind blowing over an area of fluid surface, of wind-generated waves that are not usually affected by the local wind at that time.
What are four wind characteristics that determine sea state?
The strength of the wind, the direction the winds blowing, the duration the wind blows, and ocean fetch.
What determines how strong an earthquake will be?
1. Wind strength and duration 2. Fetch of the wave
How does the length of time that wind blows over water affect the amount of energy in a wave?
They result from the wind blowing over an area of fluid surface, of wind-generated waves that are not usually affected by the local wind at that time.
Where would you find an example of wind energy?
Any time the wind blows, there is wind energy.
What is a wind trolley in a hat?
A wind trolley is a length of cord that connects a hat to a button that fastens to a lapel, in case the hat blows off in the wind.
Can sand dunes move over time?
in the same direction as that the wind blows
Are waves caused by wind?
Yes, waves are primarily caused by wind. As the wind blows over the surface of the water, it transfers some of its energy to the water, creating ripples that develop into waves. The size and strength of the waves depend on factors such as wind speed, duration, and fetch (the distance over which the wind blows).
What factors determine the size of a wave?
Wind speed Length of time the wind has blown over a given area Distance of open water that the wind has blown over; called fetch
Why is wind power renwable?
Because as the wind blows, it moves the fan of a windmill, which moves some kind of gear. This energy is transferred to a battery. This continues each time the wind blows.
