The Sun is the source of almost all the energy we use on Earth. Wind is caused by the Sun heating up the Earth, ie air above land heats up quickly, rises and is replaced by colder air from the sea, which makes a wind called a convection current. This makes the waves used in wave power.

What is a renewable energy resources that does not depend on the sun?

Wind, wave or geo-thermal


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.


What do wave properties depend on?

Wave properties depend on the medium through which the wave is travelling, the amplitude of the wave, the frequency of the wave, and the wavelength of the wave. These properties determine how the wave behaves and interacts with its surroundings.


Does the energy of a wave depend mainly on its wave length?

true


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.


What is the power of sun glasses?

The normal power of the sun glasses available in the market is 0. It does not depend on the power of corrective lens that one used to wear. For more information please visit: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sunglasses


Does hydroelectric power depend on the sun?

Indirectly, yes.You need the sun to evaporate water which falls as rain. That forms streams and then rivers. These are dammed and power generated by the forcing the water to drive turbines.


What is the equivalent wavelength of 1000 Hz?

That would also depend on the speed of the wave. Speed = wavelength x frequency.That would also depend on the speed of the wave. Speed = wavelength x frequency.That would also depend on the speed of the wave. Speed = wavelength x frequency.That would also depend on the speed of the wave. Speed = wavelength x frequency.


On what does the energy of an electromagnetic wave depend?

The energy of an electromagnetic wave depends on its frequency.


What is an interesting fact about solar power?
