Total Wave Energy in one Wavelength per unit Crest Width Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Total Energy of Wave per Width = (Density of Fluid*[g]*Wave Height^2*Wavelength)/8
TE = (ρ*[g]*H^2*λ)/8
This formula uses 1 Constants, 4 Variables

Constants Used

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

Variables Used

Total Energy of Wave per Width - (Measured in Joule per Meter) - Total Energy of Wave per Width is the sum of its kinetic energy and its potential energy.
Density of Fluid - (Measured in Kilogram per Cubic Meter) - Density of Fluid is the mass of fluid per unit volume of the fluid.
Wave Height - (Measured in Meter) - Wave Height of a surface wave is the difference between the elevations of a crest and a neighboring trough.
Wavelength - (Measured in Meter) - Wavelength refers to the distance between successive crests or troughs of a wave.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Density of Fluid: 1.225 Kilogram per Cubic Meter --> 1.225 Kilogram per Cubic Meter No Conversion Required
Wave Height: 3 Meter --> 3 Meter No Conversion Required
Wavelength: 1.5 Meter --> 1.5 Meter No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

TE = (ρ*[g]*H^2*λ)/8 --> (1.225*[g]*3^2*1.5)/8

Evaluating ... ...

TE = 20.272184296875

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

20.272184296875 Joule per Meter --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

20.272184296875 ≈ 20.27218 Joule per Meter <-- Total Energy of Wave per Width
