Alright, so wikipedia says:
Where does this 64pi come from (i'm skeptical) apon further investigation I found.
http://www.esru.strath.ac.uk/EandE/Web_sites/01-02/RE_info/wave%20power.htm
Saying its 8pi
and finally
http://www.ocsenergy.anl.gov/documents/docs/OCS_EIS_WhitePaper_Wave.pdf
Saying its 32pi
Using my own physics books I've tried to derive the proper equation myself, but havn't had a match to either of these formulas.
P=FwkA^2 sin(kx-wt)^2
If someone can derive the equation I'm using to get one of these equations in terms of just
gravity, amplitude, and period, that would be great.
