What else can I help you with?
How can an ocean move?
the ocean moves by the moon, if you get what i mean? because the earth is on an orbit and the moon controls the waves that's why the ocean moves
In traverse waves each particle of the medium moves in a circle?
Not necessarily.
What moves in waves?
The particles of the medium move up and down as the wave passes. The crests and troughs of the waves move with the wave.
What type of mediums are ocean waves?
Ocean waves are mechanical waves that are generated by the wind and travel across the surface of the water. They are a combination of longitudinal and transverse waves, where the particles of water move in both a circular and up-and-down motion as the wave passes.
Why does an ocean bouy bob up and down as a wave passes by?
An ocean buoy bobs up and down as a wave passes by because the wave causes the water particles to move in circular orbits. The buoy reacts to these circular motions by moving up and down as the wave passes underneath it.
What type of ocean wave moves the fastest?
Tsunamis are the fastest ocean waves, traveling across the ocean at speeds of up to 500-600 miles per hour. This is much faster than wind-generated waves or currents.
Do ocean waves travel in longitudinal waves?
No, they are transverse a water particle moves perpendicular to the motion of the wave (water particles move up and down where are the wave moves left or right)
Do the energy in waves move particles up and down?
convection-moves heat particles around in a circle
How many earthquakes happen in water?
The plates under the ocean moves which causes the water to have shock waves.
What are three ways the water moves?
The three ways the ocean moves in are currents, tides, and waves. I figured this out while I was doing homework. Maybe it does help you learn. :)
Which waves are in the ocean?
Ocean waves created by energy in the water are the waves that can be found in the ocean.
How does a compressional wave moves?
A compressional wave moves by particles in the medium vibrating back and forth in the same direction as the wave. This creates areas of compression and rarefaction as the wave passes through the medium. The energy of the wave is transferred through these compressions and rarefactions.
