Wind Velocity given Height of Waves for Fetch more than 20 miles Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Wind Velocity = (((Height of Wave-(2.5-Fetch length^0.25))/0.17)^2)/Fetch length
V_w = (((h_a-(2.5-F^0.25))/0.17)^2)/F
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Wind Velocity - (Measured in Meter per Second) - Wind Velocity is an air moving from high to low pressure, usually due to changes in temperature that is the horizontal movement of air specified by its speed and direction.
Height of Wave - (Measured in Meter) - Height of Wave is the distance between the lowest and highest points of a person/ shape/ object standing upright.
Fetch length - (Measured in Meter) - Fetch Length is the horizontal distance over which wave-generating winds blow.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Height of Wave: 12.2 Meter --> 12.2 Meter No Conversion Required
Fetch length: 44 Meter --> 44 Meter No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

V_w = (((h_a-(2.5-F^0.25))/0.17)^2)/F --> (((12.2-(2.5-44^0.25))/0.17)^2)/44

Evaluating ... ...

V_w = 118.502780255267

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

118.502780255267 Meter per Second --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

118.502780255267 ≈ 118.5028 Meter per Second <-- Wind Velocity

(Calculation completed in 00.007 seconds)
