A skipper on a boat notices wave crests passing the anchor chain every 6.0 seconds. The skipper estimates the distance between crests at 30.0
m. What is the speed of the water waves?

Respuesta :

okarean

Explanation:

given Time Period = 5 Sec

Amplitude = 1m, Wave length = 15 m

using time period = 1/ frequency , Frequency = 1/5 cycles per sec = 0.2 sec = 12 per min

wave speed= Frequency * Wave length

speed = 0.2*15 = 3m/s
