Long Wave simplification for Wavelength Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Wavelength = Wave Period*sqrt([g]*Water Depth)
λ = T*sqrt([g]*d)
This formula uses 1 Constants, 1 Functions, 3 Variables

Constants Used

[g] - Gravitational acceleration on Earth Value Taken As 9.80665

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

Wavelength - (Measured in Meter) - Wavelength can be defined as the distance between two successive crests or troughs of a wave.
Wave Period - (Measured in Second) - Wave Period is the time between successive peaks or troughs.
Water Depth - (Measured in Meter) - Water Depth of the considered catchment. Water depth 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

Wave Period: 3 Second --> 3 Second No Conversion Required
