What is the region between breaking waves and the shore?

The region between breaking waves and the shore is known as the surf zone. This area is characterized by turbulent water movement and breaking waves as they approach the shoreline. It is where wave energy dissipates and influences nearshore sediment transport.


What is it called when waves break the water that rushes up the beach?

That phenomenon is called "surf" or "surfing." It occurs when waves reach shallow water near the shoreline, break, and create a foamy, turbulent water movement that rushes up the beach.


Would you prefer turbulent flow or laminar flow for whitewater rafting?

As we know, whitewater rafting is in water, in which turbulent flow would be best in the case. Generally because the water will NOT be straight, and this activity is where the water flow is rather rough then smooth. Overall, turbulent flow is best used in this scenario.


Which Objects reduce turbulent flow over water and air?

To reduce turbulent flow over water, objects like breakwaters, groynes, and vegetation can be used to create barriers that disrupt the flow of water, reducing turbulence. In the air, structures like windbreaks, barriers, and surface roughness elements can be employed to reduce turbulent flow and promote smoother airflow.


What are Breaking waves are called?

Breaking waves are also commonly referred to as whitecaps or surf. This occurs when the wave crest collapses and spills forward as it hits shallow water or encounters an obstacle.

Why is the troposphere is called turbulent sphere?

In our atmosphere there are different layers and Troposphere is the lowest layer , which extend up to a height of 10 km. It is called turbulent sphere as it contains air (N2, O2, CO2 )much water vapours and clouds .


Why troposphere called turbulent sphere?

Troposphere is the lowest layer of atmosphere. It extend up to a height of 10km. It is a turbulent and dusty zone as it contains air (N2, O2, CO2 )much water vapours and clouds .
