Tsunamis are fast-moving waves often generated by underwater earthquakes. in the deep ocean their amplitude is barely noticable, but upon reaching shore, they can rise up to the astonishing height of a six-story building.
one tsunami, generated off the aleutian islands in alaska, had a wavelength of 732 km and traveled a distance of 3650 km in 4.59 hours.
(a) what was the speed (in m/s) of the wave? for reference, the speed of a 747 jetliner is about 250 m/s. find the wave's:
(b) frequency and
(c) period

Asailboat is traveling to the right when a gust of wind causes the boat to accelerate leftward at 2.5m/s2 for 4s. after the wind stops, the sailboat is traveling to the left with a velocity of 3.0m/s.assuming the acceleration from the wind is constant, what was the initial velocity of the sailboat before the gust of wind? answer using a coordinate system where rightward is positive.
