Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

A river has a depth of 2 m, and waves travel at 3.5 m/s. Calculate the Froude number and specify if the flow is subcritical or supercritical.

💡 Hint: Use g = 9.81 m/s² for calculations.

Question 2

If a wave has a finite amplitude of 0.5 meters in a channel of depth 1.5 meters, how does this affect the speed compared to a wave with small amplitude?
