Ocean Tide Amplitude given Total Maximum Discharge for Total of all Inlets Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Ocean Tide Amplitude = (Maximum Discharge of Total Inlets*Tidal Period)/(2*pi*Surface Area of Bay*Maximum Velocity in the Inlet Throat)
a_o = (Q_max*T)/(2*pi*A_b*V_max)
This formula uses 1 Constants, 5 Variables

Constants Used

pi - Archimedes' constant Value Taken As 3.14159265358979323846264338327950288

Variables Used

Ocean Tide Amplitude - (Measured in Meter) - Ocean Tide Amplitude is the height difference between high and low tides, reflecting gravitational forces from the moon and sun.
Maximum Discharge of Total Inlets - (Measured in Cubic Meter per Second) - Maximum Discharge of Total Inlets is the maximum volume flow rate passing a particular location during an event.
Tidal Period - (Measured in Second) - Tidal Period is the time taken for a specific site on Earth to rotate from an exact point under moon to same point under moon, also known as “tidal day” and it’s slightly longer than a solar day.
Surface Area of Bay - (Measured in Square Meter) - Surface Area of Bay is defined as a small body of water set off from the main body.
Maximum Velocity in the Inlet Throat - (Measured in Meter per Second) - Maximum Velocity in the Inlet Throat [length/time] is measure of speed in the inlet throat.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Maximum Discharge of Total Inlets: 10.15 Cubic Meter per Second --> 10.15 Cubic Meter per Second No Conversion Required
Tidal Period: 130 Second --> 130 Second No Conversion Required
Surface Area of Bay: 1.5001 Square Meter --> 1.5001 Square Meter No Conversion Required
Maximum Velocity in the Inlet Throat: 35 Meter per Second --> 35 Meter per Second No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

a_o = (Q_max*T)/(2*pi*A_b*V_max) --> (10.15*130)/(2*pi*1.5001*35)

Evaluating ... ...

a_o = 3.99982758120422

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

3.99982758120422 Meter --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

3.99982758120422 ≈ 3.999828 Meter <-- Ocean Tide Amplitude

What is Bay Superelevation?

A Superelevation of the bay means that the average level of the bay is greater than the average elevation of the ocean over a given time period. An obvious cause of this effect is the introduction of fresh water into the bay from local rivers and streams. The effect of long-term (months or years) rise in sea level causing a long-term rise in bay level is not included in this definition of bay superelevation, since both sea and bay are responding simultaneously. The bay may not rise at the same rate as the sea due to possible
circulation effects if multiple inlets connect the bay to the ocean.

What is the amplitude of waves?

The amplitude of a wave refers to the maximum amount of displacement of a particle on the medium from its rest position. In a sense, the amplitude is the distance from rest to crest. Similarly, the amplitude can be measured from the rest position to the trough position.
