Wave Height given Volume of Water within Wave above Still Water Level Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Height of the Wave = Volume of Water per Unit Crest Width^2/((16/3)*Water Depth from Bed^3)
H_w = V^2/((16/3)*D_w^3)
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Height of the Wave - (Measured in Meter) - Height of the Wave is the difference between the elevations of a crest and a neighboring trough.
Volume of Water per Unit Crest Width - (Measured in Square Meter) - Volume of Water per Unit Crest Width is the volume of water within the wave per unit of crest width.
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

Volume of Water per Unit Crest Width: 2608.448 Square Meter --> 2608.448 Square Meter No Conversion Required
Water Depth from Bed: 45 Meter --> 45 Meter No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

H_w = V^2/((16/3)*D_w^3) --> 2608.448^2/((16/3)*45^3)

Evaluating ... ...

H_w = 14.0000019932181

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

14.0000019932181 Meter --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

14.0000019932181 ≈ 14 Meter <-- Height of the Wave

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.
