Height of Wave from Trough to Crest given Velocity between 1 and 7 feet Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Height of Wave = (Wind Velocity-7)/2
h_a = (V_w-7)/2
This formula uses 2 Variables

Variables Used

Height of Wave - (Measured in Meter) - Height of Wave is the distance between the lowest and highest points of a person/ shape/ object standing upright.
Wind Velocity - (Measured in Meter per Second) - Wind Velocity is an air moving from high to low pressure, usually due to changes in temperature that is the horizontal movement of air specified by its speed and direction.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Wind Velocity: 20 Meter per Second --> 20 Meter per Second No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

h_a = (V_w-7)/2 --> (20-7)/2

Evaluating ... ...

h_a = 6.5

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

6.5 Meter --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

6.5 Meter <-- Height of Wave

(Calculation completed in 00.020 seconds)
