A fisherman notices that his boat is moving up and down periodically without any horizontal motion, owing to waves on the surface of the water. It takes a time of 2.30 ss for the boat to travel from its highest point to its lowest, a total distance of 0.650 mm. The fisherman sees that the wave crests are spaced a horizontal distance of 6.10 mm apart.
(a) How much is the wavelength? Express your answer using three significant figures.
(b) Find the period of the wave. Express your answer using three significant figures.
(c) How fast are the waves traveling? Express the speed v in meters per second using three significant figures.
(d) What is the amplitude A of each wave? Express your answer in meters using three significant figures.

While studying chemical reactions and conservation of matter, sarah's class conducted a variety of experiments. sarah and her lab partner found the mass of a wax candle and placed the candle in a flask. the students lit the candle and let it burn to completion. all that was left was wax and charred candle wick. per their teacher's instructions, the students found the mass of the products. their data can be seen in the data table. formulate a hypothesis the students could test to explain why the experiment did not support the law of conservation of matter. a) the students could repeat the experiment using different candles; there might have been a flaw in the candle. b) the experiment should be repeatable. the students should run several trials and then take an average of the after mass in each trial. c) the students should have someone in the class check their measurement skills as they repeat the experiment. they may have made an error using the balance. d) the students should burn the candle in a container that has some type of lid so that any gas that is a product of the reaction can be contained and massed. submit
