Experiments on water waves show that the speed of waves in shallow water is independent of their wavelength (see Problem). Using this observation and dimensional analysis, determine how the speed v of shallow-water waves depends on the depth of the water, d, the mass per volume of water, p, and the acceleration of gravity, g.
