The energy that forms ocean waves come from

Geography

Mila [183]3 years ago

The correct answer is - the air movement/winds.

The movement of the air, more commonly referred to as winds, is the one responsible for the creation of the waves in the oceans, as well as the seas, and the lakes.

The frictional force from the winds is a force that appears when the moving air influences a certain object/material/substance. Even though the frictional force is lower on smoother surfaces, including the water bodies, it still manages to create surface disruptions on the ocean waters, thus creating the ocean waves.

The stronger this force is, the bigger the waves would be, and vice versa, the lower this force is, the smaller the waves would be.

How were the Lechuguilla caves formed?
Ket [755]
This is a very good question, so I'm going to thank you for asking it in the first place. I would like to first tell you one amazing thing about the Lechuguilla caves were that they weren't formed like other average caves, up to down, when acidic water drips, and forms caves below us. The story of Lechuguilla was that oil from reservoirs not very far away under ground, and a chemical compound by the name of Hydrogen Sulfide gas piled up in there, and the culmination of the molecules underground, it created, well, a very, very strong acid. This is known as sulfuric acid. What the sulfuric acid did was pound through layers of the limestone existing underground. And what this did was form the Lechuguilla caves. And like at the beginning, the unique thing about the Lechuguilla was that this process made it form bottom to up, instead of top to bottom.
