How to Evaluate Wind Speed at Standard Elevation of 10 m above Water's Surface using Drag Force due to Wind?

Wind Speed at Standard Elevation of 10 m above Water's Surface using Drag Force due to Wind evaluator uses Wind Speed at Height of 10 m = sqrt(Drag Force/(0.5*Air Density*Coefficient of Drag*Projected Area of the Vessel)) to evaluate the Wind Speed at Height of 10 m, The Wind Speed at Standard Elevation of 10 m above Water's Surface using Drag Force due to Wind formula is defined as a specific method of estimating wind speed at a height of 10 meters above the surface of water, particularly in the context of coastal and ocean engineering. The standard measurement height for wind speed is 10 meters above ground level because it represents a height where wind effects are less influenced by surface roughness and local obstacles, providing a consistent reference point for comparison across different locations. Wind Speed at Height of 10 m is denoted by V10 symbol.
