2 cards from this section. Quick, good the night before a test.
What does the symbol 'CG' represent in wave power equations?
Think about how the energy travels with the wave.
Define wave power briefly.
How is it calculated?
What does wave power (P) equal?
Remember the equation we discussed.
True or False: Shoaling makes waves taller as they approach shallower depths.
Think about wave behavior in different depths.
Given a wave height of 2 meters in deep water, calculate the expected wave height in shallow water if C0 is 5 m/s and the formula h/h0 = √(C0/C) * (1/(2n)) applies.
You might need to determine C in shallow waters first.
A steep wave with a height of 3 meters shows significant mass transport; calculate the mass transport velocity if the wave has a period of 8 seconds.
Recall how steepness influences mass transport.
