2) A wave in a depth d = 12 m, height H = 3 m, and a period T = 10 sec. The corresponding deepwater wave height is H0 = 3.13 m. Find: (a) The maximum horizontal and vertical displacement of a water particle from its mean position when z = 0 and z = -d. (b) The maximum water particle displacement at an elevation z = -7.5 m when the wave is in infinitely deep water. (c) For the deepwater conditions of (b) above, show that the particle displacements are small relative to the wave height when z = -L0 /2

Question

2) A wave in a depth d = 12 m, height H = 3 m, and a period T = 10 sec. The corresponding deepwater
wave height is H0 = 3.13 m.
Find:
(a) The maximum horizontal and vertical displacement of a water particle from its mean position when z
= 0 and z = -d.
(b) The maximum water particle displacement at an elevation z = -7.5 m when the wave is in infinitely
deep water.
(c) For the deepwater conditions of (b) above, show that the particle displacements are small relative to
the wave height when z = -L0 /2
