It is the fastest growing source of renewable energy and can efficiently produce electricity in a cost effective manner. How it Works: Wind turbines convert the mechanical energy of the wind to mechanical …
Introduction Radio waves are known to have the longest wavelengths1 and smallest frequencies2 in the electromagnetic system. Their wavelengths range from 30 cm to thousands of meters and their frequency can range from as low as 3 Hz to 1 GHz (equivalent to 1 x 10^9 Hz). To visualize the vast size of radio waves, …
