Answer:

Ocean currents are streams of water flowing constantly on the ocean surface in definite directions. The ocean currents may be warm or cold. The warm ocean currents originate near the equator and move towards the poles. The cold current carry water from polar or higher latitudes to tropical or lower latitudes. For example the Labrador Ocean current is a cold current while the Gulf Stream is a warm current. The ocean current influence the temperature conditions of the area. Warm currents bring about warm temperatures over land surface. The areas where the warm current and cold currents meet provide the best fishing grounds of the world. For example seas around Japan and the eastern coast of North America. The areas where a warm and cold current meet also experience foggy weather and therefore navigation becomes difficult.

In causes form

Climatic Conditions: Currents influence the climatic conditions of the regions in which they flow. The warm Equatorial currents raise the temperature of the region in which they flow. Similarly, the cold currents lower the temperature of the places where they flow.

Two traveling sinusoidal waves are described by the wave functions y1 = 4.85 sin [(4.35x − 1270t)] y2 = 4.85 sin [(4.35x − 1270t

Tamiku [17]

Answer:

Approximately $9.62$ .

Explanation:

$y_1 = 4.85\, \sin[(4.35\, x - 1270\, t) + 0]$ .

$y_2 = 4.85\, \sin[(4.35\, x - 1270\, t) + (-0.250)]$ .

Notice that sine waves $y_1$ and $y_2$ share the same frequency and wavelength. The only distinction between these two waves is the $(-0.250)$ in $y_2\!$ .

Therefore, the sum $(y_1 + y_2)$ would still be a sine wave. The amplitude of $(y_1 + y_2)\!$ could be found without using calculus.

Consider the sum-of-angle identity for sine:

$\sin(a + b) = \sin(a) \cdot \cos(b) + \cos(a) \cdot \sin(b)$ .

Compare the expression $\sin(a + b)$ to $y_2$ . Let $a = (4.35\, x - 1270)$ and $b = (-0.250)$ . Apply the sum-of-angle identity of sine to rewrite $y_2\!$ .

$\begin{aligned}y_2 &= 4.85\, \sin[(\underbrace{4.35\, x - 1270\, t}_{a}) + (\underbrace{-0.250}_{b})]\\ &= 4.85 \, [\sin(4.35\, x - 1270\, t)\cdot \cos(-0.250) \\ &\quad\quad\quad\; + \cos(4.35\, x - 1270\, t)\cdot \sin(-0.250)] \end{aligned}$ .

Therefore, the sum $(y_1 + y_2)$ would become:

$\begin{aligned}& y_1 + y_2\\[0.5em] &= 4.85\, [\sin(4.35\, x - 1270\, t) \\ &\quad \quad \quad\;+\sin(4.35\, x - 1270\, t)\cdot \cos(-0.250) \\ &\quad\quad\quad\; + \cos(4.35\, x - 1270\, t)\cdot \sin(-0.250)] \\[0.5em] &= 4.85\, [\sin(4.35\, x - 1270\, t)\cdot (1 + \cos(-0.250)) \\ &\quad\quad\quad\; + \cos(4.35\, x - 1270\, t)\cdot \sin(-0.250)] \end{aligned}$ .

Consider: would it be possible to find $m$ and $c$ that satisfy the following hypothetical equation?

$\begin{aligned}& (4.85\, m)\cdot \sin((4.35\, x - 1270\, t) + c)\\&= 4.85\, [\sin(4.35\, x - 1270\, t)\cdot (1 + \cos(-0.250)) \\ &\quad\quad\quad\; + \cos(4.35\, x - 1270\, t)\cdot \sin(-0.250)] \end{aligned}$ .

Simplify this hypothetical equation:

$\begin{aligned}& m\cdot \sin((4.35\, x - 1270\, t) + c)\\&=\sin(4.35\, x - 1270\, t)\cdot (1 + \cos(-0.250)) \\ &\quad\quad + \cos(4.35\, x - 1270\, t)\cdot \sin(-0.250)\end{aligned}$ .

Apply the sum-of-angle identity of sine to rewrite the left-hand side:

$\begin{aligned}& m\cdot \sin((4.35\, x - 1270\, t) + c)\\[0.5em]&=m\, \sin(4.35\, x - 1270\, t)\cdot \cos(c) \\ &\quad\quad + m\, \cos(4.35\, x - 1270\, t)\cdot \sin(c) \\[0.5em] &=\sin(4.35\, x - 1270\, t)\cdot (m\, \cos(c)) \\ &\quad\quad + \cos(4.35\, x - 1270\, t)\cdot (m\, \sin(c)) \end{aligned}$ .

Compare this expression with the right-hand side. For this hypothetical equation to hold for all real $x$ and $t$ , the following should be satisfied:

$\displaystyle 1 + \cos(-0.250) = m\, \cos(c)$ , and

$\displaystyle \sin(-0.250) = m\, \sin(c)$ .

Consider the Pythagorean identity. For any real number $a$ :

${\left(\sin(a)\right)}^{2} + {\left(\cos(a)\right)}^{2} = 1^2$ .

Make use of the Pythagorean identity to solve this system of equations for $m$ . Square both sides of both equations:

$\displaystyle 1 + 2\, \cos(-0.250) + {\left(\cos(-0.250)\right)}^2= m^2\, {\left(\cos(c)\right)}^2$ .

$\displaystyle {\left(\sin(-0.250)\right)}^{2} = m^2\, {\left(\sin(c)\right)}^2$ .

Take the sum of these two equations.

Left-hand side:

$\begin{aligned}& 1 + 2\, \cos(-0.250) + \underbrace{{\left(\cos(-0.250)\right)}^2 + {\left(\sin(-0.250)\right)}^2}_{1}\\ &= 1 + 2\, \cos(-0.250) + 1 \\ &= 2 + 2\, \cos(-0.250) \end{aligned}$ .

Right-hand side:

$\begin{aligned} &m^2\, {\left(\cos(c)\right)}^2 + m^2\, {\left(\sin(c)\right)}^2 \\ &= m^2\, \left( {\left(\sin(c)\right)}^2 + {\left(\cos(c)\right)}^2\right)\\ &= m^2\end{aligned}$ .

Therefore:

$m^2 = 2 + 2\, \cos(-0.250)$ .

$m = \sqrt{2 + 2\, \cos(-0.250)} \approx 1.98$ .

Substitute $m = \sqrt{2 + 2\, \cos(-0.250)}$ back to the system to find $c$ . However, notice that the exact value of $c\!$ isn't required for finding the amplitude of $(y_1 + y_2) = (4.85\, m)\cdot \sin((4.35\, x - 1270\, t) + c)$ .

(Side note: one possible value of $c$ is $\displaystyle \arccos\left(\frac{1 + \cos(0.250)}{\sqrt{2 \times (1 + \cos(0.250))}}\right) \approx 0.125$ radians.)

As long as $\! c$ is a real number, the amplitude of $(y_1 + y_2) = (4.85\, m)\cdot \sin((4.35\, x - 1270\, t) + c)$ would be equal to the absolute value of $(4.85\, m)$ .
