A wave is moving through a medium. A point on the medium is undergoing many up and down oscillations in a short amount of time. This is conclusive evidence that the wave has a relatively large _________.
The speed of a wave depends upon the ________. Select the most appropriate answer:
A transverse wave is generated on a slinky. A coil of the slinky makes 12 complete up and down cycles in 4 seconds.
Find the period of the wave to the nearest hundreth.
A transverse wave is generated on a slinky. A coil of the slinky makes 12 complete up and down cycles in 4 seconds.
Find the frequency of the wave to the nearest hundreth.
Two boats – Boat A and Boat B – are anchored a distance of 33 meters apart. The incoming water water waves force the boats to oscillate up and down, making one complete cycle every 30 seconds. When Boat A is at its peak, Boat B is at its low point, AND there is a crest in between the two boats. The vertical distance between Boat A and Boat B at their extremes is 8 meters.
Use this figure to plot possible positions for Boats A and B:
