A ship anchored at sea is rocked by waves that have crests 14 m apart the waves travel at 7.0 m/s how often do the wave crest reach the ship

Respuesta :

Answer:

I think its 2 seconds

Explanation:

14/7

Given the data from the question, it will take the ship 2 s to often reach the wave crest

How to determine the frequency

  • Wavelength (λ) = 14 m
  • Velocity (v) = 7 m/s
  • Frequency (f) =?

f = v / λ

f = 7 / 14

f = 0.5 Hz

How to determine the period

Frequency (f) = 0.5 Hz

Period (T) =?

T = 1 / f

T = 1 / 0.5

T = 2 s

Thus, it will take the ship 2 s to reach the crest.
