Question 1

What is the relationship between static and dynamic pressure?

Static pressure is always greater than dynamic
Dynamic pressure measures wave motion
Both are equal

💡 Hint: Think about how gravity influences both pressures.

Question 2

Group velocity in deep water is typically how much compared to phase velocity?

Equal to phase velocity
Half the phase velocity
Double the phase velocity

💡 Hint: Reflect on the relationship defined earlier.
