Probability Density of Wave Period Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Probability = 2.7*(Wave Period^3/Mean Wave Period)*exp(-0.675*(Wave Period/Mean Wave Period)^4)
p = 2.7*(P^3/T')*exp(-0.675*(P/T')^4)
This formula uses 1 Functions, 3 Variables

Functions Used

exp - n an exponential function, the value of the function changes by a constant factor for every unit change in the independent variable., exp(Number)

Variables Used

Probability - Probability of occurrence of an event (x ≥ xt), of how likely an event is to occur, or how likely it is that a proposition is true.
Wave Period - Wave Period is the time between successive peaks or troughs.
Mean Wave Period - (Measured in Second) - Mean Wave Period is the mean of all wave periods in a time-series representing a certain sea state.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Wave Period: 1.03 --> No Conversion Required
Mean Wave Period: 2.6 Second --> 2.6 Second No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

p = 2.7*(P^3/T')*exp(-0.675*(P/T')^4) --> 2.7*(1.03^3/2.6)*exp(-0.675*(1.03/2.6)^4)

Evaluating ... ...

p = 1.11604571411966

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

1.11604571411966 --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

1.11604571411966 ≈ 1.116046 <-- Probability

What are the characteristics of progressive waves?

A progressive wave is formed due to continuous vibration of the particles of the medium.
The wave travels with a certain velocity.
There is a flow of energy in the direction of the wave.
No particles in the medium are at rest.
The amplitude of all the particles is the same.
