Question
(C) A small-amplitude wave is progressing in the positive x-direction on the surface of
water of constant density p and depth h, so that the equation of the surface is z = n(x, t) where
z is measured vertically upwards from the undisturbed surface (z = 0).
=
e sin(kx - wt) with € < 1, the pressure in the fluid can be
You are given that for n(x, t)
written
P= Papgz + po,
where Pa is the constant atmospheric pressure and is given by
= eg sin(kx - wt) cosh[k(z + h)]/cosh(kh).
Here k and w are related through the dispersion relation
c = gk tanh kh.
Consider the form of this flow in the shallow water limit, kh → 0.
1. What is the dispersion relation in this limit?
2. What is the wave speed?
3. Show that to leading order in kh the horizontal component of velocity is the same at all
depths.
4. Show that to leading order in kh the vertical component of velocity varies linearly with
depth, satisfying the kinematic boundary conditions on y = 0 and y = :-h.
