(a)
The fraction of wavelength of water wave when the crest level is
(a)
Answer to Problem 89A
The movement that takes place from equilibrium level to the crest represents about
Explanation of Solution
Given:s Time of the water wave:
Introduction:
The distancebetween the position of equilibrium and the rest is
The distance is calculated from the equilibrium position.
The movement that takes place from equilibrium level to the crest represents about
The fraction of wavelength of water wave
Conclusion:
Hence, the fraction of wavelength of water wave is
(b)
The period of the water wave when the crest level is
(b)
Answer to Problem 89A
The period of the water wave is
Explanation of Solution
Given:
Time of the water wave:
Formula used:
To calculate the time periodformula used is,
Where,
T: Time
Calculation:
To find the time period of the water wave,
t is given as
Conclusion:
Hence the time period of the water wave is
(c)
The frequency of water wave when the crest level is
(c)
Answer to Problem 89A
The frequency of water wave is
Explanation of Solution
Given:
Time of the water wave:
Formula used:
The frequency is the reciprocal of the Time period,
Formula is written as,
Where,
Calculation:
As frequency is the reciprocal of Time Period.
Conclusion: The frequency of water wave is
