From the 4 waves shown on Page 2, fill in the following table (9 pts):

Wavelength

Wave Height

A

B

C

D

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 page 236. 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
