Functions Used

sqrt - A square root function is a function that takes a non-negative number as an input and returns the square root of the given input number., sqrt(Number)

Variables Used

Total Wave Energy per Unit Crest Width - (Measured in Joule per Meter) - Total Wave Energy per Unit Crest Width refers to the amount of energy carried by ocean waves along a unit length of the wave crest.
Density of Salt Water - (Measured in Kilogram per Cubic Meter) - The Density of Salt Water is the weight of the salt water per cubic meter volume. It is greater than density of pure water.
Height of the Wave - (Measured in Meter) - Height of the Wave is the difference between the elevations of a crest and a neighboring trough.
Water Depth from Bed - (Measured in Meter) - Water Depth from Bed means the depth as measured from the water level to the bottom of the considered water body.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Density of Salt Water: 1025 Kilogram per Cubic Meter --> 1025 Kilogram per Cubic Meter No Conversion Required
Height of the Wave: 14 Meter --> 14 Meter No Conversion Required
Water Depth from Bed: 45 Meter --> 45 Meter No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

E = (8/(3*sqrt(3)))*ρ_s*[g]*H_w^(3/2)*D_w^(3/2) --> (8/(3*sqrt(3)))*1025*[g]*14^(3/2)*45^(3/2)

Evaluating ... ...

E = 244716622.520528

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

244716622.520528 Joule per Meter --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

244716622.520528 ≈ 2.4E+8 Joule per Meter <-- Total Wave Energy per Unit Crest Width

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.
