Pemanfaatan Gelombang Laut


selancar(www.matanews.com)
Gelombang dalam perambatannya membawa inergi atau dalam kata lain gelombang memindahkan energi. Salah satu contoh sederhana energi dapat merambat melalui gelombang adalah panas yang sampai ke permukaan bumi adalah energi yang dibawa oleh gelombang  yaitu gelombang cahaya. Contoh lain adalah energi yang terdapat pada gelombang laut.

Gelombang  laut  termasuk gelombang  mekanik dengan medium untuk perambatannya adalah  air.  Gelombang laut disebut  gelombang ombak  dalam perambatannya  membawa energi  dari tengah laut  menuju pantai . Energi gelombang ombak inilah yang  dimanfaatkan para peselancar  untuk meluncur di atas ombak.

Gelombang ombak yang ditimbulkan oleh arus samudera, angin, dan tarikan pasang surut bulan memulai gerakannya  di laut(samudera) lepas jauh dari pantai.  Saat bergerak menuju pantai gelombang melambat dan mengumpul menjadi lebih tinggi. Hal ini terjadi akibat makin menuju kearah pantai  dasar laut makin dangkal (perhatikan gambar)

gelombang mendekati pantai

Pada saat gelombang timbul jauh ditengah laut gelombang lebar berbentu simetris dan bergerak sangat cepat. Pada saat gelombang mendekat ke pantai yang dasar lautnya mulai dangkal maka gelombang akan, melambat  dan mengumpul sehingga puncaknya akan tumpah pada gelombang tersebut. Para peselancar memanfaatkan  gerakan ini dengan menaiki sebuah gelombang  yang mulai pecah untuk meluncur. Dengan berdiri diatas papan  dan sedikit di belakang bagian tengahnya.  Dengan menyeimbangkan badannya sambil sedikit mendorongkan hidung papan diatas air  kemudian menggerakkan papan menyamping memotong gelombang . Selanjutnya papan akan didorong oleh suatu gabungan gaya  grafitasi dan gaya apung  serta gerak gelombang itu sendiri kedepan menuju pantai.

Itulah salah satu pemanfaatan energi  gelombang dalam bidang olah raga dan pariwisata  tentunya kita berharap suatu saat gelombang ombang bisa dimanfaatkan buat yang lain misalnya menjadi energi listrik. Bila berhasil memanfaatkan energi gelombang untuk energi listrik bisa menambah kekurangan energi di tanah air khususnya energi listrik dan gelombang laut merupakan sumber energi yang tidak akan habis.

  7. Blick stressed that this isn’t a freebie type giveaway, but rather a 'thank you' to the cyclists who support Oakley at the event. “We’re here to be loyal to oakleys the loyal people who support us,” he said. “We started in bike [the industry] and we never will forget where we came from. There’s no sign, but come talk to us and ask us about it, and we’ll tell you what we’re doing here.”We caught up with Jim cheap oakley sunglasses Beck, who works in sales at Oakley, while he was working flat-out on Friday to build up custom frames for riders in line at the spring refresh. He said he’d done 50 or so by mid-day. We can only imagine the weekend will be insane there at the oakley sunglasses Oakley sunglass bar.
    Oakley's typical three-point fit is secure and stable – we never had to reposition or adjust the glasses during any of our road, cyclocross, or mountain bike test rides. However, the extra mechanical bits that lend easy and speedy lens interchanges (not to mention the oakley store expanded possibility of custom color combinations) come at the cost of sturdiness. We didn't break our sample frames during testing but the multi-piece construction feels a little flimsier than standard Radars.This little slide is the key to Oakley's Switchlock technology We're a little disappointed that Oakley continues to discount oakley sunglasses apply its hydrophobic coating to the exterior of the lens only. This surface treatment is outstanding for keeping rain, road spray, and debris from obscuring your vision but it does nothing to help with the much more common problem of sweat dripping down on to the inside.
    According oakley eyeglasses to Oakley's Steve Blick, both riders are pleased with their results so far. Hincapie went so far to tell Blick his Oakley testers were "money." The Racing Jackets will be available to the public in 2009, and while a retail price hasn't been established, Blick did say the oakley sale new glasses will be easier to switch out lenses, and will come with a polarized lens option
