Answer:

The answer is C.Weak winds that blow for short periods of time over small distances.

Explanation:

A sea wave is formed by the force of the wind on a vast surface of liquid, where the wind rubs against the surface of the water, causing a drag on it; In this way, as the friction increases, the size of the wave in formation increases. The factors that have to do with the formation of the waves are the wind speed, distance of water that the wind has to blow, width of the area affected by the wind and the time available for the wind to blow (long or short periods of time); All these factors are what determine the size of the waves and the larger each one is, the larger the waves will be.

Answer: The smallest ocean waves are produced by:

C. Weak winds that blow for short periods of time over small distances

Explanation: For a wave to effectively be produced there need to be large wind, long period of time and a large distance of water. If they are all reduced, then there would be a reduction in the intensity of the wave.

Economic consequences of removing dams
g100num [7]
The U.S. has more than 87,000 dams greater than six feet high (and two million overall). While many dams continue to provide benefits such as flood control, irrigation, and water supply, for other dams the cost of maintenance or the negative effects on communities, fish, and tribes justifies their removal.
Dam owners and regulators decide whether to remove a dam by weighing many factors including: the cost of removal and the ability to replace any lost power generation against avoided long-term maintenance; safety concerns; benefits to endangered fish populations; increased recreational and commercial fishing; and restoration of cultural values of nearby tribes.
By 2020, roughly 70% of dams will be more than 50 years old, inviting us to reconsider the value to the public of long-term investments in this infrastructure.
