Ocean waves are a surface effect. The wave breaks and rolls when the bottom is the depth of half total wave height. That is to say, a five-foot wave crest breaks in five feet of water. The water disturbed by the wave is as deep as the wave is tall. The waves rolling onto the beach drain back under the incoming sets of waves and create what is commonly called under-tow. At depths down to about 40 feet, depending on the energy, near the beach, the waves create surge. The surge is a bit disorienting because you are sloshing back and forth one way, the plants another and the bottom is, of course, staying put. The effect that waves have on the bottom is that they produce sand from crashing on rocks and near the beach they deposit that sand in a rippled pattern because of the surge. In the deep ocean, the energy of the waves will have long since been damped out by the water between the waves and the bottom and there will be no appreciable effect. The answer is both true and false, depending on what you are calling the bottom of the ocean. See the diagram in the link below.
This is false.
False. It loses energy.
It's false because the transfer of energy through matter by direct contact of its particles is conduction.Have a nice day :)
False
false
False! The reduction in pressure causes the gasses to exsolve (come out of solution) and escape into the atmosphere, so the dissolved gas content of a magma reduces when it reaches the surface.
False. If you watch water boil in a transparent container, you will see bubbles of gas form on the sides and bottom. They break loose and rise to the surface.
No.
No. A DVD can use both the top and the bottom surface for data.
The answer is false. Ground water is water retained below earth's surface. BELOW THE SURFACE.
A shiny surface reflects 'more' light than a matt surface.
false !
false; you cannot get energy from nothing, it is conserved
This is false.
False. It loses energy.
