How are waves produced? And in what way are they carriers of energy??

 

-Waves are created by energy passing through water, causing it to move in a circular motion. The ocean is never still. ... Wind-driven waves, or surface waves, are created by the friction between wind and surface water. As wind blows across the surface of the ocean or a lake, the continual disturbance creates a wave crest.

-Wave energy is produced when electricity generators are placed on the surface of the ocean. The energy provided is most often used in desalination plants, power plants and water pumps. Energy output is determined by wave height, wave speed, wavelength, and water density.

•In electromagnetic waves, energy is transferred through vibrations of electric and magnetic fields.

In sound waves, energy is transferred through vibration of air particles or particles of a solid through which the sound travels.

In water waves, energy is transferred through the vibration of the water particles.
