The factors that I will keep the same are:> The equipment> Number of times> Height of drop The one factor that I will change is the depth of water.

Likewise if the water becomes shallower the waves get slower.> Shallower water means shorter wavelengths which mean slower speeds.> Deeper water means longer wavelengths which mean faster speeds. The speed of water...
