Wave energy is indirectly dependent on the sun, as it originates primarily from wind generated by solar heating of the Earth's surface. The sun heats different parts of the Earth unevenly, creating temperature gradients that drive wind patterns. These winds blow across the ocean's surface, transferring energy to the water and generating waves. Therefore, the intensity and patterns of wave energy are influenced by solar energy's effect on atmospheric conditions.
What else can I help you with?
Living things depend on energy from?
All living things depend on energy from the sun. Even though animals get their energy from either plants or from animals that eat plants, those plants get their energy from the sun, so it all comes back to the sun.
Where does tidal wave energy come from?
It depends which wave you're talking about. There are many different ones, and the energy they carry has different origins. -- The energy in ocean waves and sunny-day light waves and heat waves originates in the sun. -- The energy in the sound wave emitted by a violin string originates in the arm muscle of he or she who draws the bow. (Actually in the food she ate the night before the concert, which ultimately came from the sun.) -- The energy in a seismic wave originates in the Earth's core. -- The energy in the waves of golden wheat in the field originates in the sun, heats the air, and the wind carries it to the wheat.
Ultraviolet rays given off by the sun are what kind of wave?
Ultraviolet rays given off by the sun are a form of electromagnetic wave. They have shorter wavelengths and higher energy than visible light.
What do carnivores from the savanna depend on for food?
actually they depend on our main source of energy the sun indirectly the sun lets plants photosynthesize then the herbivores will eat the plants so they can survive and so the carnivores will eat the herbivores this is called the food chain
What happens to the energy in a seismic wave as the wave grows larger?
As a seismic wave grows larger, the energy it carries remains constant. The amplitude (height) of the wave increases, but the total energy the wave carries does not change. The energy is redistributed within the wave to accommodate the larger amplitude.
What is a renewable energy resources that does not depend on the sun?
Wind, wave or geo-thermal
Does the energy of a mechanical wave depend on the amplitude of the wave?
No, the energy of a mechanical wave does not depend on the amplitude of the wave. The energy is determined by the frequency and the medium through which the wave is traveling. Amplitude only affects the intensity or loudness of the wave, not the total energy.
On what does the energy of an electromagnetic wave depend?
The energy of an electromagnetic wave depends on its frequency.
Does the energy of a wave depend mainly on its wave length?
true
What does the energy of an electromagnet wave depend on?
Frequency
What does the energy of an electromagnetic wave depend?
Frequency
What does the energy of the electromagnetic wave depend on?
Frequency
What does the energy of a electromagnetic wave depend on?
The energy of an electromagnetic wave depends on its frequency. The energy is directly proportional to the frequency of the wave, meaning higher frequency waves have more energy.
What does the energy of the wave pulse depend on?
The energy of the wave pulse depends on wave length and frequency.
Why wave depend on the sun?
From wind (convection current)by sun heat by steering from the surface of the water
Why do you say that all energy resources depend on the sun?
All energy resources ultimately rely on the sun because the sun is the primary source of energy for the Earth. Fossil fuels, solar power, wind power, and hydroelectric power all originate from some form of solar energy, whether directly or indirectly. Without the sun, these energy resources would not exist.
Do the energy of a mechanical wave depends on the frequency of the wave?
No, the energy of a mechanical wave does not depend on the frequency of the wave. The energy of a mechanical wave is related to its amplitude, which is the magnitude of the wave's displacement from equilibrium. Frequency affects the pitch of the sound wave, but not its energy.
