Aperson fishing from a pier observes that 6 wave crests pass by in 8.0 s and estimates the distance between two successive crests to be 4.8 m. the timing starts with the first wave crest and ends with the last. what is the speed of the wave?

The speed of the wave is 3 m/s.

Explanation:

Given that,

Number of waves = 6

Time = 8.0 s

Successive crests

We need to calculate the frequency

Using formula of frequency

Put the value into the formula

We need to calculate the speed of the wave

Using formula of speed

Put the value into the formula

Hence, The speed of the wave is 3 m/s.

energy can be converted from one form to another, but it cannot be created or destroyed in ordinary chemical or physical means. do not understand what you are asking but hope this

the total distance that martina travels that day is

(distance from home to mom's office) plus (distance from mom's office to school)

plus (distance from school to library) plus (distance from library to friend's house)

plus (distance from friend's house to martina's house).

(we don't know what any of these distance actually is.)
