As wind blows over the surface of water by bernoulli's principle as speed of wind increases then pressure over the water surface decreases. So there is a rise in the water level at that location and falls back. This constitutes simple harmonic vibrations which will be propagated in all directions as crests and troughs. Hence water waves
What else can I help you with?
Which explains how area over which winds blow creates high waves?
wish i knew
How are ocean waves made?
The winds cause waves on the surface of the ocean. The wind transfers some of its energy to the water, through friction between the air molecules and the water molecules. Stronger winds cause larger waves.
Which explains how winds cause surface currents?
Winds put surface water in motion in the direction they are blowing, just like when you blow on your coffee in the morning you cause ripples in the cup.
How tidal waves damage environment?
cause the force of the winds are very strong and violent.
Do waves cause winds to blow across the earth?
no, it is actually the other way around
How did ocean waves form?
The winds cause waves on the surface of the ocean (and on lakes). The wind transfers some of its energy to the water, through friction between the air molecules and the water molecules. Stronger winds (like storm surges) cause larger waves. You can make your own miniature waves by blowing across the surface of a pan of water.
How did Poseidon cause towering waves and howling wings?
Yes the Greek sea god Poseidon could cause towering waves and howling winds and storms, though he was not the only god which could.
Most surface waves are caused by the action of 'earthquakes' or 'winds'?
Surface waves are primarily caused by earthquakes rather than winds. Earthquakes generate seismic waves that propagate along Earth's surface, leading to ground shaking. Winds, on the other hand, primarily generate ocean surface waves rather than seismic surface waves.
What does turbulent seas mean?
It means that the waves and winds are high and will likely cause a hazard to ocean going vessels. Storms usually cause turbulant seas.
Does the atmosphere cause water level to rise up?
It can do. Winds in the atmosphere cause waves. Also the low pressure in the centre of a depression can cause a elevation in sea level called a storm surge.
What waves cause damage to property?
Tsunamis, storm surges, and rogue waves are examples of waves that can cause damage to property. Tsunamis are large ocean waves typically caused by undersea earthquakes or volcanic eruptions, storm surges are abnormally high tides driven by strong winds during severe storms, and rogue waves are unexpectedly large and powerful waves that can occur even in seemingly calm conditions.
What natural phenomenon is explained in the story?
The story explains the natural phenomenon of typhoons, which are powerful tropical cyclones that can cause strong winds, heavy rain, and storm surges.
