1) Write an algebraic expression for the particle speed (cps) at the sea surface for deep-water waves in terms of period T and wave amplitude a.

2) Consider a wave with a wavelength L = 500 m and amplitude a = 2 m. Compute the ratio of the phase speed c divided by the particle speed (cps) using your expression from part b?

Solutions

Expert Solution

2.wave velocity = 27.92 m/s

phase velocity = 13.96 m/s

orbital velocity v(cps)= (a*cw)/wavelength = 0.11168 cps

the ratio is 125

Dimensional analysis In deep water, the fact that the propagation velocity v for surface waves has been observed depends on the wavelength λ of the waves and the wave height h. It is also reasonable to believe that also the density ρ of the liquid and the acceleration of gravity g affect. Use dimensional analysis for to produce a possible connection. Note that the dimensional analysis can show that someone parameter actually has no effect. In that case, this must...

Deep water fish are hard to transport to the surface safely. Why do you think that is? As the water pressure decreases, there is not enough oxygen for the fish in the water As the water pressure increase, the air in the swim bladder compresses until they burst.

1.) A particle is uncharged and is thrown vertically upward from ground level with a speed of 20.1 m/s. As a result, it attains a maximum height h. The particle is then given a positive charge +q and reaches the same maximum height h when thrown vertically upward with a speed of 27.3 m/s. The electric potential at the height h exceeds the electric potential at ground level. Finally, the particle is given a negative charge −q. Ignoring air resistance,...
