General: Tsunamis The speed of a tsunami (popularly known as a tidal wave, although it has nothing whatever to do with tides) depends on the depth of the water through which it is traveling. At a depth of d feet, the speed of a tsunami will be s(d) = 3.86√d miles per hour. Find the speed of a tsunami in the Pacific basin where the average depth is 15,000 feet.
