Question

Emphasis Heading 1 Normal Strong 11 : 12 : 13 14 151 16 HOMEWORK-WAVES NAME (20 points) From the 4 waves shown on Page 2, fill in the following table (9 pts): Wavelength Wave Height For the 4 waves shown on Page 2, determine the speed of the wave if the depth of the water is shown in the table below. Note: For this exercise any water depth less than ½ of the wavelength is considered a shallow-water wave, anything water depth greater than ½ of the wavelength is a deep-water wave (9pts). The equations you will use to solve for the waves speed are found in the book in pages 240 and 241. Make sure you select the proper equations so your results will be expressed on the proper units. Depth of water 1.5 meters Depth of water 3 meters If wave's A and B were to combine together, pick which of the 4 on Page 3 would be the resulting wave pattern. (2 pts)

Explanation / Answer

The wavelengths and wave heights of the 4 waves on page 2 are given below. The units are in metres.

Wave Length (metres) Wave Height (metres) A 4 6 B 4 2 C 6 4 D 2.5 4
