Hurricanes derive their energy from the thermal energy of ocean waters.

Hurricanes are one of nature's most powerful and destructive forces. But have you ever wondered where their power comes from?

A hurricane's formation is complicated, but it is primarily determined by three factors. To begin, you'll need warm water, ideally at least 80 degrees. The second component is moist air. Finally, converging winds are required for the formation of a hurricane.

The storm absorbs heat energy from the surface water in the same way that a straw absorbs liquid. Moisture forms in the air as a result of this.

The storm will become a hurricane if the wind conditions are favorable. The storm is powered by this heat energy. And the warmer the water is, the more moisture there is in the air. As a result, hurricanes could become larger and more powerful. Heat and energy transfer are depicted in satellite imagery.

The builder of a house on a cliff overlooking the ocean should be concerned about what
Anna11 [10]

Answer:

Erosion

Explanation:

Building a house on a cliff is a very trick thing. The cliffs usually are not composed of hard rocks, but instead are usually composed of sedimentary rocks which are much softer and less stable on the long run. The cliffs are also exposed to heavy erosion, in the lower parts because of the waves, in the higher parts because of the winds. The erosion makes the cliffs slowly fall apart, and occasionally even crumble down, so a builder that would build a house on a cliff should be wary of all these things and construct the house where it is the safest for the long run.
