Homework Statement
A water wave has length L moves with velocity V across body of water with depth d, then v^2=gL/2pi•tanh(2pi•d/L)
A) if water is deep, show that v^2~(gL/2pi)^1/2
B) if shallow use maclairin series for tanh to show v~(gd)^1/2
Homework Equations

3. The Attempt at a Solution
Have no idea where to start, just looking for some tips and I'm assuming I need the tanh series for both parts, this has been the hardest calculus for me
