A) The elevation finder can help you find out the elevation of land for a country, place or other location. You can even figure out the land elevation below the sea or ocean. You can do this by typing in an address, name of a place, coordinates etc., into the corresponding input fields above.
I saw an experiment in a small ramshackle museum in Ecuador on the equator. There was a sink on a stand. When it was placed a metre on one side of the equator the water circled clockwise as it drained, one metre on the other side the water drained anti-clockwise and when directly over the equator the water drained, straight down, with no rotation.
Near the equator the water is about 8 centimeters high than in middle latitudes. This cause a very slight slope and water wants to flow down the slope. Winds blowing on the surface of the ocean push the water. Friction is the coupling between the wind and the water's surface.A wind blowing for 10 hours across the ocean will cause the surface waters to flow at about 2% of the wind speed. Water will pile up in the direction the wind is blowing.hese waters move around the ocean basins by density driven forces and gravity. The density difference is a function of different temperatures and salinity. These deep waters sink into the deep ocean basins at high latitudes where the temperatures are cold enough to cause the density to increase.
