Expert Solution
Introduction:

Waves in ocean are produced by wind passing over the ocean surface. These can also be formed by pressure of atmosphere or gravitational attraction.

We know that the power of ocean wave is given as

P=ρg64πH2T

Here ρ,g are water density and acceleration due to gravity respectively.

HereH,T are height of wave and time period of wave respectively.
