I don't recognise your terms 'solar wave' and 'height'. Solar energy is emitted from the sun and reaches earth as radiation in the visible, ultraviolet, and infrared bands. the totoal falling on 1 square meter of earths surface (on average) is 230 watts.

What is ionosphere?

The ionosphere is a layer of Earth's atmosphere that contains a high concentration of ions and free electrons. It plays a crucial role in radio wave propagation by reflecting and refracting radio signals, allowing long-distance communication. The ionosphere is influenced by solar activity and can vary in density and height throughout the day.


What is the purpose of coleman solar panels?

Solar panels are a renewable energy source, along with windpower and wave power. They can be used to collect energy from the sun and convert it into electricity.


The ionosphere is classified by its what?

The ionosphere is classified by its altitude and the density of ions present at different layers. It consists of several regions, primarily the D, E, and F layers, which vary in height and ionization levels. These layers are influenced by solar radiation and play a crucial role in radio wave propagation and communication.


What was the highest tidalwave?

The highest recorded tsunami was the 1958 Lituya Bay megatsunami in Alaska, with a wave height of 1,720 feet (524 meters). This tsunami was triggered by a massive landslide into the bay, causing the towering wave.


What does the wave mechanical model do that the solar system model failed to do?

Niels Bohr's "solar system" model of the atom was an attempt to explain the spectrum of the hydrogen atom. The model had a negative electron orbiting a positive proton, but the electron was only allowed to occupy particular energy levels. The model worked well, but lacked any theoretical basis. The wave mechanical model gave a reason for the restricted energy levels in terms of the wave properties of electrons. This developed into "quantum mechanics" which is probably the most important theory in modern physics.

What is a trough in respect to a wave?

A trough is the low point in a wave, where the wave reaches its minimum height or lowest point. It is the opposite of a crest, which is the high point in a wave where it reaches its maximum height.


A sentence for wave crest?

The wave crest is the highest point of a wave, where the wave reaches its maximum height before breaking.


What happens to this wave as it reaches shore?

Since we don't know what "this wave" is, we cannot answer the question.


How do you use wave height in a sentence?

The wave height at the beach measured six feet this morning, making it ideal for experienced surfers.


Top of a wave?

The crest of a wave is the topmost point where the wave reaches its maximum height. It is followed by the trough, which is the lowest point of the wave. The crest is a peak of energy moving through the water.


What is the difference between a crest and a trough?

If you are referring to a sine wave, a crest is the point on a wave with the maximum value or upward displacement within a cycle. A trough is the opposite of a crest, so it is the minimum or lowest point in a cycle. See Photo: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Crest_trough.svg


As a wave nears shore the wave height increases and the wavelength .?

As a wave nears shore, the wave height increases as the wave interacts with the seabed, causing it to slow down and compress. This leads to a decrease in wavelength, as the wave energy becomes concentrated in a smaller area. Ultimately, this can result in the wave breaking as it reaches shallow water near the shore.


What is a wave called that topples over?

A wave that topples over is known as a "crashing" or "breaking" wave. This occurs when the wave reaches a point where its crest becomes too steep relative to its height, causing it to collapse forward as it breaks against a shoreline or obstacle.


What does friction between the ocean floor and the water cause the waves to do?

Friction between the ocean floor and the water can slow down the wave at the bottom, causing the wave to decrease in height and change direction as it approaches shallower water. This can result in the wave breaking as it reaches the shore.


The hight of a wave?

The height of a wave is also known as its amplitude. More generally, the amplitude is "how much some measurement changes" - this measurement need not always be a height.


What is the term for the height of a wave?

Hi The term used to refer the height of a wave is "significant wave height".


How do you measure the strength of a tsunami?

The usual measure of a tsunami is the height of the wave just as it reaches the beach.
