Which of the following conditions will produce the largest waves? a. strong, long duration winds in a large fetch weak, b. short duration winds in a small fetch strong, c. short duration winds in a small fetch weak, d. long duration winds in a large fetch

Respuesta :

Answer:

strong, long duration winds in a large fetch weak

Explanation:

A fetch is an area of the ocean or sea where wind blows in a fixed direction, this consistent wind leads to waves.

Fetch length is the distance reached by the wave generating winds when measured in from a horizontal direction. The wind creates wave by forming a drag and a frictional drag, the wind the flow over the wave making it grow. Therefore, a strong, long duration winds in a moderate fetch or weak fetch will produce largest waves.
