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.

What are energy transformations in a tidal wave power station?

There are no tidal wave power stations.Tidal waves are unpredictable. There is no way at present to capture their energy. We can capture the energy of tides and also of waves, but not of tidal waves.


Some of the advantages of tidal wave energy?

Tidal waves are unpredictable. There is no way at present to capture their energy. We can capture the energy of tides and also of waves, but not of tidal waves.


What are some examples of wave energy?

Examples of wave energy include ocean waves, tidal currents, and underwater currents. These natural sources of energy can be harnessed to generate electricity using technologies such as wave energy converters and tidal turbines.


Two ways which energy can be extracted from the ocean?

Two ways to extract energy from the ocean are through wave energy, using the motion of ocean waves to generate electricity through specialized devices, and tidal energy, harnessing the power of tidal movements to turn turbines and create electricity.

Is a tidal wave a mechanical wave?

A tidal wave is a water wave so it is a mechanical wave.


Why is tidal wave power energy good?

some advantages of tidal energy are, continuous, predictable energy. Another benefit of tidal power is that it is predictable. The gravitational forces of celestial bodies are not going to stop anytime soon.


What starts a tidal wave?

The tidal wave starts by the moon


Is wave power and tidle power the same?

No, they are not the same. Wave power refers to electricity or high pressure pumped water which is derived from the transformation of the kinetic and potential energy of ocean waves. Tidal energy refers to electricity which is derived from the transformation of the kinetic energy of tidal flows through narrow channels or from the potential energy of seawater impounded from tidal flows.
