Dimensionless Wave Frequency Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Dimensionless Wave Frequency = (Friction Velocity*Frequency at Spectral Peak)/[g]
f'_p = (V_f*f_p)/[g]
This formula uses 1 Constants, 3 Variables

Constants Used

[g] - Gravitational acceleration on Earth Value Taken As 9.80665

Variables Used

Dimensionless Wave Frequency - Dimensionless Wave Frequency for empirical prediction method.
Friction Velocity - (Measured in Meter per Second) - Friction Velocity, also called shear velocity, is a form by which a shear stress may be re-written in units of velocity.
Frequency at Spectral Peak - (Measured in Hertz) - Frequency at Spectral Peak is the number of occurrences of a repeating event per unit of time.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Friction Velocity: 6 Meter per Second --> 6 Meter per Second No Conversion Required
Frequency at Spectral Peak: 13 Hertz --> 13 Hertz No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

f'_p = (V_f*f_p)/[g] --> (6*13)/[g]

Evaluating ... ...

What is Geostrophic wind?

The Geostrophic flow is the theoretical wind that would result from an exact balance between the Coriolis force and the pressure gradient force. This condition is called geostrophic equilibrium or geostrophic balance. The geostrophic wind is directed parallel to isobars.
