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 3.00 ss for the boat to travel from its highest point to its lowest, a total distance of 0.680 mm . The fisherman sees that the wave crests are spaced a horizontal distance of 6.10 mm apart. Required:
a. How fast are the waves traveling?
b. What is the amplitude of each wave?
c. If the total vertical distance traveled by the boat were 0.30 m but the other data remained the same, how would the answers to parts (a) and (b) be affected?
