What do ocean waves and sound waves have in common?
you are sitting on a boat dock watching water waves go by you track one wave crest with your eyes and notice that it takes 10 seconds for the crest to reach another boat dock. you also notice that each crest reaches your dock 0.5 seconds previous crest. The crest and through on each wave are 2 m apart. 1. Calculate the wavelength of the water waves 2. Calculate the distance between the two boat docks
The speed of surface waves in water decreases as the water becomes shallower. Suppose waves travel across the surface of a lake with a speed of 2.3 m/s and a wavelength of 1.7 m. When these waves move into a shallower part of the lake, their speed decreases to 1.9 m/s, though their frequency remains the same. Find the wavelength of the waves in the shallower water.
12. How are surface waves different from body waves? Which are more damaging?
With this question: Ocean waves are observed to travel along the water surface during a developing storm. A Coast Guard weather station observes that there is a vertical distance from high point to low point of 4.6 meters and a horizontal distance of 8.6 meters between adjacent crests. The waves splash into the station once every 6.2 seconds. Determine the frequency and the speed of these waves. how would you draw the diagram here is mine, but I don't think it's quite correct.
Ocean waves hitting a beach are always found to be nearly normal to the shore.
