Answer:

2.) When waves hit the shoreline, they transfer their energy to the land.

3.) Wind transfers its energy to the water to create ocean waves.

Explanation:

I got it right on the test.

Wind transfers its energy to the water of the ocean to produce waves and this waves transfers its energy to the land.

What is transfer of energy?

Transfer of energy means the relocation of energy from one system to another or from one form to other.

When wind flows over the surface of the ocean, then they transfer their energy to water of the ocean. This absorbed energy by the water of ocean is seen in the form of the ocean waves or also known as wave energy.

Now the vertical motion of this waves on the surface of the ocean due to the presence of the kinetic energy, transfers its energy to the sea shoreline and results in the displacement of the sand or land.

Hence, option (2) & (3) is correct i.e. wind transfers its energy to the water and waves transfers its energy to the land.
