The weatherman reports the storm waves are about 2 meters high and 35 meters apart. what properties of waves is the reporter describing?

Amplitude and wavelength

Explanation:

- The amplitude of a wave is the maximum displacement of the wave, measured with respect to the equilibrium position (so, for a water wave it is the maximum height of the wave relative to the equilibrium position)

- The wavelength of a wave is the distance between two consecutive crests (or throughs) of a wave. So, for a water wave, it is the distance between two consecutive waves

Therefore, in the example in the problem we have:

- 2 meters corresponds to the amplitude

- 35 meters corresponds to the wavelength

at positions a, g kinetic energy is maximum.

at position d, potential energy is maximum.
