Challenge Problems
Push your limits with advanced challenges
A river has a slope with a varying bottom profile. Derive the conditions needed to maintain a uniform pressure while also describing the resultant wave pattern.
💡 Hint: Start by breaking down the wave impacts and incorporate elements from Bernoulli’s principle.
Given a water tank with a moving paddle at one lateral boundary causing periodic waves, describe the forces acting on the fluid and derive the dynamics involved.
💡 Hint: Focus on analyzing the wave propagation patterns and relate them to boundary conditions.
