Tsunamis: Group of answer choices Are long, low waves out in the ocean that pile up near shore because such waves, or parts of s
Lilit [14]

The correct answer is Are long, low waves out in the ocean that pile up near shore because such waves, or parts of such waves, move slower in shallower water.

Explanation:

A tsunami is a natural disaster in which waves flood the land. This phenomenon is often caused by eruptions or earthquakes in the ocean. Moreover, as a tsunami starts waves increase their longitude, indeed the longitude of waves in a tsunami can be as long as 100 kilometers. Additionally, once waves reach shallow water near the coast these increase their speed due to the friction of the seafloor, and at this point, waves pile up to form waves up to 30 meters and this causes the flood on the land and the destruction of structures. According to this, tsunamis "Are long, low waves out in the ocean that pile up near shore because such waves, or parts of such waves, move slower in shallower water."

Jupiter has 67 moons, more than any other body in the solar system. What physical attribute of Jupiter causes it to have so many
Harrizon [31]

The correct answer is - it's mass.

Jupiter is the biggest planet in our Solar System, but only the biggest, also it has the biggest mass by far from all the planets. Because of its very big mass Jupiter has a very strong gravitational pull. The strong gravitational pull contributes to the attraction and keeping of lots of bodies that can not escape it, instead they revolve around the planet. These objects, or space bodies, that the gravitational pull of the planet managed to trap, became the moons, or rather natural satellites, of Jupiter.

Why are the states of California, Oregon, and Washington mild and rainy?
Alex73 [517]

There's few reasons why these three states have mild and rainy climate, most important of which are:

- Pacific trade winds; the Pacific trade winds are bringing fronts of the Pacific that are moving eastwards towards the western part of the USA. These winds are warm and wet and they bring in lot of precipitation with them.

- Mountain ranges; the mountain ranges that are stretching through these three states and that lift up the terrain significantly east from the coast are crucial because they stop the Pacific trade winds from going further inland and disperse, so they stop their movement and give them the opportunity to accumulate more and more clouds and thus higher precipitation.

- Ocean currents; the dominant ocean currents along the shores of these states are cold ocean currents both from the south and the north, so the colder water manages to affect the coastal regions and drop their temperature by few degrees.
