what is meant by the terms short-wave and long-wave energy. B) Name a specific type of electromagnetic energy for each type. C) Correctly identify which is associate with the energy emitted from the Sun and the Earth. Short wave energy is high energy wavelengths that move quickly and almost look like scribbles. Longwave energy is energy wavelengths that are more like rolling hills, they are very low in energy. A specific type of electromagnetic energy for short waves is visible light, it can also be
else. I believe that wave should be the main replacement of fossil fuels. Wave power is an unbelieveable new source of clean, reusable energy. First off, waves are made when “wind blows against the surface of the sea and creates waves that are packed with kinetic energy” (Spilsbury 18). As big as the oceans are, I believe the benefits from wave power are even greater. There could be no limit to what we could get from wave power because
Wave & Tide Energy What is it? Wave and tide energy are energy harvested from the movement of tides, the rising of waves and the temperature of the ocean water. Each of these energy stores are a renewable energy currently making its grand entrance to the world. Tidal energy has several methods in which it can be harnessed, as with wave energy as well. To begin, tidal energy can be harnessed far out to sea or near the shore. The popular method of underwater turbines to harness wave power are currently

Wave and tidal energy harnessing are becoming a new viable potential form of alternative energy. New innovations with increasing advancements in technology are rapidly changing the course in the production of a clean, pollution free, and efficient use of energy through the consumption of the one of the world’s largest natural resource, the ocean. Illustrating the developments of wave energy, there are more suitable geographic locations than others for greater potential of wave and tidal energy production
Introduction Ultrasound is a type of energy produced by sound waves that belong to a frequency which are extremely high to be noticed by human ear; anything above 16 kHz [Jayasooriya et al. 2004]. When ultrasound travels through a living structure, it creates a compression and depressions, and a high energy is induced. In accordance to the frequency and the sound wave amplitude induced, many characters like physical, chemical and also few biological effects is noted down, which allows us to apply
Sea waves could be converted into electricity by use of different Outer Continental Shelf energy apparatuses including terminators, point absorbers, attenuators, and overtopping devices. Using horizontal axis turbines, ocean currents can also be used to generate electricity. Likewise, sea tides can be employed to produce electricity by using tidal energy turbines. Temperature differences between the upper and lower waters of the sea may also be used to generate power through the Ocean Thermal Energy
A sound wave is a disturbance that repeats regularly in space and time and that transmits energy from one place to another with no transfer of matter. In Activity 2 on page 8 we had to model sound waves using an instrument. In our class we used a flute as the example and when the person blew into it, sound waves were produced. As they blew and changed the volume and pitch the sound waves changed. A sound wave is created when something vibrates. When something vibrates, longitudinal waves are created
happens because of sound waves. Sound Waves are disturbances that go from one place to another in a medium. An example of this could be a Slinky. when it is all stretched out the slinky would be at equilibrium. Then a particle in the slinky moves in any direction and makes a disturbance. A pulse allows you to see the disturbance that is happening from both ends of the slinky . when a pulse is repeated continuously through the slinky then it is a wave. A medium is where the wave is carried and held
Virtual Lab Google PHET and navigate to the waves in a string simulation. Or type in the following web site. http://phet.colorado.edu/simulations/sims.php?sim=Wave_on_a_String Click on Run Now. Adjust the settings on the simulation for zero damping, high tension, manual operation & no end. Wiggle the left end up and down by moving the mouse vertically one time returning to the rest position. 1. Describe the wave. The waves was a pulse, not a periodic wave. The pulse appeared as a hump that travels
