The waves in the open ocean are usually caused by the friction of the winds over the open ocean of water. The waves in the ocean vary in strength and size depending with the speed of wind and the friction with the surface of water.
What else can I help you with?
What is the name for a great wave on the open ocean?
Tidal or rogue wave.
Which is not true about a wave in the open ocean?
The waves in the open ocean are usually caused by the friction of the winds over the open ocean of water. The waves in the ocean vary in strength and size depending with the speed of wind and the friction with the surface of water.
What speed does a tsunami wave move through the open ocean?
23 mph
How both a wave's energy and the water in a wave move?
Ocean water within a wave moves in a circular motion in open water. As the wave approaches the shore, the water becomes shallow and the bottom.
Is an ocean wave mechanical wave?
Yes, an ocean wave is a mechanical wave, since the water is the medium of the wave.
When a wave passes through the ocean it does what?
When a wave passes through the ocean it may make a wave.
What wave is similar to an ocean's wave?
A sound wave
How long does it take for a wave to cross the ocean?
depends on the size of the wave and what ocean it is in
In the open ocean the wave height of a tsunami is what?
In the open ocean, the wave height of a tsunami is typically low, often less than a meter, making it difficult to detect. However, the wavelength is extremely long, sometimes hundreds of kilometers. As the tsunami approaches shallower coastal waters, its speed decreases, and the wave height increases dramatically, leading to potentially devastating impacts when it reaches land.
What ocean motion occurs when a wave strikes the bottom of the ocean?
A breaker wave, a surf.
How does the ocean wave wave?
gravity of course!
Is a ocean wave a transverse wave?
yes it is
