Information about how electricity generated from waves​

Geography

wariber [46]3 years ago

A classic example of renewable energy is wave energy. Wave power uses electricity generators on the ocean surface to tap into the huge store of kinetic energy. Wave energy, also known as ocean energy or sea wave energy, is energy harnessed from the ocean or sea waves. The rigorous vertical motion of surface ocean waves contains a lot of kinetic (motion) energy that is captured by wave energy technologies to do useful tasks, for example, generation of electricity, desalinization of water and pumping of water into reservoirs.

Answer:

As the wind passes over the surface of the oceans, a portion of the winds kinetic energy is transferred to the water below, generating waves.The kinetic energy of the wave turns a turbine attached to a generator, which produces electricity.The wave energy is absorbed by radiating a wave with destructive interference to the incoming waves. Buoys use the rise and fall of swells to generate electricity in various ways including directly via linear generators, or via generators driven by mechanical linear-to-rotary converters or hydraulic pumps.

An elevator building code requires at least 2.3 square feet per person. The depth of an elevator box is 7 feet. How wide must th
wlad13 [49]

Answer:

x = 4.9285 ft

Explanation:

q = 2.3 ft²/person

y = 7 ft

n = 15 persons

We can apply the formula

A = x*y

or

A = q*n = (2.3 ft²/person)*(15 persons)

⇒  A = 34.5 ft²

then we have

A = x*y  ⇒  34.5 ft² = x* 7 ft

⇒ x = 34.5 ft² / 7 ft

⇒ x = 4.9285 ft  (wide)

What causes two distinct pressure zones between the equator and the poles? . . A. The troposphere interacts with the mesophere.
dalvyx [7]

Answer:

<u>D. Earth's rotation</u>

Explanation:

  • The Coriolis force, cause distinct pressure zones between the equator and the poles due to the spinning of the earth on its axis. This force directs the winds on the right side in the northern hemisphere and directs them in the left side in the southern hemisphere.
  • This force is the cause and consequence of the earth's internal inertia. Friction force causes it to be actively seen in motion. Compared to other force Coriolis force is smaller and it only deflects the pressure pattern in north and south spheres.  
  • Horizontal deflation is grater near the poles, and less away from poles. The named is given after a French mathematician and physicist Gaspard-Gustave de Coriolis.
