Force Analysis:
In 1 minute 7 waves
1st and 2nd waves - very low force.
3rd ,4th ,5th waves - medium force.
6th wave - high force.
7th wave - low force.

Wave Velocity :

where, v=velocity of wave.

=wavelength of wave.
d=distance between earth surface and average wave.

Range of velocity of wave =0.8 m/sec to 1.2m/sec.

Wave power calculation

Wave with 1m wavelength & 1m height can supply 10kw
power
Considering 30% efficiency net power output will be 3kw
Calculated power=Force*velocity
=l*h*100*1
