v = sqrt([g]*h'*(1-tan(Θ_f)^2))
This formula uses 1 Constants, 2 Functions, 3 Variables

Constants Used

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

Functions Used

tan - The tangent of an angle is a trigonometric ratio of the length of the side opposite an angle to the length of the side adjacent to an angle in a right triangle., tan(Angle)
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

Wave Speed - (Measured in Meter per Second) - Wave Speed is the rate at which a wave travels through a medium, measured in distance per unit time.
Average Depth - (Measured in Meter) - Average Depth of a set of objects is calculated by summing all the depths and dividing by the number of objects.
Friction Factor in Terms of Degree - (Measured in Radian) - Friction factor in terms of degree is the measure of resistance of fluid flow in terms of degree.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Average Depth: 26 Meter --> 26 Meter No Conversion Required

What is River Navigation?

When a stretch of river is made navigable, a lock is sometimes required to bypass an obstruction such as a rapid, dam, or mill weir – because of the change in river level across the obstacle.
In large scale river navigation improvements, weirs and locks are used together. A weir will increase the depth of a shallow stretch, and the required lock will either be built in a gap in the weir, or at the downstream end of an artificial cut which bypasses the weir and perhaps a shallow stretch of river below it. A river improved by these means is often called a Waterway or River Navigation.

How to Calculate Propagation velocity of tide wave?
