- The Height Of Waves In A Storm Depends On The Speed Of The Wind Assuming The Wind Has No Obstructions For A Long Distan 1 (31.64 KiB) Viewed 14 times
The height of waves in a storm depends on the speed of the wind. Assuming the wind has no obstructions for a long distance, suppose the maximum wave height H for a wind speed x can be approximated by H=0.04x² +0.8x -87, where H is in feet and x is in knots (nautical miles per hour). For what wind speed would the maximum wave height be 9 ft? The maximum wave height would be 9 ft for the wind speed of knots.
