What is Wave Number?

The Wave number is the spatial frequency of a wave, measured in cycles per unit distance or radians per unit distance. Whereas temporal frequency can be thought of as the number of waves per unit of time, wavenumber is the number of waves per unit distance.

How are particle motion and kinetic energy related?

Particles are objects in motion, so they have kinetic energy. The faster a particle moves, the more kinetic energy it has. Kinetic energy is related to heat. Energy can move, or transfer, from one particle to another when particles collide.

How to Calculate Kinetic Energy due to Particle Motion?

Kinetic Energy due to Particle Motion calculator uses Kinetic Energy of Wave per Unit Width = (1/16)*Density of Fluid*[g]*(Wave Height^2)*Wavelength to calculate the Kinetic Energy of Wave per Unit Width, The Kinetic Energy due to Particle Motion formula is defined as the energy possessed by particles due to motion. Particles of a solid cannot move around because they are closely packed, hence they have the least kinetic energy. Kinetic Energy of Wave per Unit Width is denoted by KE symbol.

How to calculate Kinetic Energy due to Particle Motion using this online calculator? To use this online calculator for Kinetic Energy due to Particle Motion, enter Density of Fluid (ρ), Wave Height (H) & Wavelength (λ) and hit the calculate button. Here is how the Kinetic Energy due to Particle Motion calculation can be explained with given input values -> 181.0982 = (1/16)*1.225*[g]*(3^2)*1.5.

FAQ

What is Kinetic Energy due to Particle Motion?

The Kinetic Energy due to Particle Motion formula is defined as the energy possessed by particles due to motion. Particles of a solid cannot move around because they are closely packed, hence they have the least kinetic energy and is represented as KE = (1/16)*ρ*[g]*(H^2)*λ or Kinetic Energy of Wave per Unit Width = (1/16)*Density of Fluid*[g]*(Wave Height^2)*Wavelength. Density of Fluid is the mass of fluid per unit volume of the fluid, Wave Height of a surface wave is the difference between the elevations of a crest and a neighboring trough & Wavelength refers to the distance between successive crests or troughs of a wave.

How to calculate Kinetic Energy due to Particle Motion?
