Aboat produced water waves of frequency 4 hz and wavelength 2m, if it reached the shore after 2 seconds how far is the boat from the shore?

S = 16 m

Explanation:

Given that

The frequency of the water waves, f = 4 Hz

The wavelength of the water waves, λ = 2 m

The time the waves reached the shore, t = 2 s

The relation between the velocity, wavelength, and the frequency of the wave is given by the relation,

                                           v = f λ    m/s

Substituting the given values in the above equation,

                                           v = 4 x 2

                                              = 8 m/s

The velocity of the water waves is v = 8 m/s

The distance between the shore and boat is given by

                                            s = v x t

                                               = 8 x 2

                                               = 16 m

Hence, the distance between the boat and the shore is, s = 16 m
