| The periodic rise and fall of the ocean's surface caused by the gravitational force between Earth and the Moon and between Earth and the Sun | Tides
🗑
|
||||
| Occurs when Earth, the Moon, and the Sun form a right angle, has the lowest tidal range | Neap tide
🗑
|

| The average level of the ocean's surface at any given time | Sea level
🗑

| A wave that forms when an ocean disturbance suddenly moves a large volume of water | Tsunami
🗑
|

| Occurs when Earth, the Moon, and the Sun form a straight line; has the largest tidal range | Spring tide
🗑
|

| The difference in water level between a high tide and a low tide | Tidal range
🗑
|
||||
| The highest part of a wave | Crest
🗑
|
||||
| The lowest part of a wave | Trough
🗑
|
||||
| The vertical distance from the crest to crest or from trough to trough | Wave height
🗑
|
||||
| The horizontal distance from crest to crest or from trough trough | Wavelength
🗑
|
||||
| The currents formed by wind blowing over the surface of water | Surface waves
🗑
|
||||
| The motion of the water particles in a wave is circular | True
🗑
|
||||
| Waves generally transport water | False
🗑
|
||||
| Define Breaker | When a wave's base can no longer support the crest, and the wave collapses
🗑
|
||||
| How shallow does water need to be for a breaker to form | Seashore shallow
🗑
|
||||
| What disturbances can causes a tsunami | Underwater earthquake or landslides, a volcanic eruption, or even ice breaking away from a glacier.
🗑
|
||||
| What causes tides | Gravitational force
🗑
|
||||
| Why does the largest tidal range occur during spring tides | Gravitational pull on the ocean is strongest when the two forces act together
🗑
|
||||
| Why does a neap tide have the lowest tidal range | Gravitational pull act against each other
🗑
|
||||
| The average level of the ocean's surface at any given time | Sea level
