The formula for shallow-water wave propagation speed, Eq. (10.9) or (10.10), is

Chapter 10, Problem p10.1

(choose chapter or problem)

The formula for shallow-water wave propagation speed, Eq. (10.9) or (10.10), is independent of the physical properties of the liquid, like density, viscosity, or surface tension. Does this mean that waves propagate at the same speed in water, mercury, gasoline, and glycerin? Explain
