- A capillary wave is a wave traveling across the surface of a fluid that is driven by the surface tension within the fluid. The speed v of a capillary wave depends on the density of the fluid ?ρ , the wavelength of the wave ?λ, and the surface tension ?σ . The SI units of surface tension are J/m2. The capillary wave speed can be written as ?=???????v=kσaρbλc , where k is some unitless constant. What must be the value of c?arrow_forward= 424 m away.
