Waves begin to "feel bottom" when the depth of water is

Physics

I think the correct answer would be one half the wavelength. Waves would "feel bottom" when the water is at the depth of 0.5 of the wavelength. "Feel bottom" is a term used to describe that the depth of water affects the wave properties. Hope this answers the question.

Equal to one-half the wavelength is the right answer.  

Water is regulated by many approaches such as depth gauges (based on force) a sounding line and by sonar range. Prior to the modern era, sailors would cast metal weighted materials into the ocean. Submarines made a new demand for depth estimation, to need to know the depth of boats in the water. However, waves start to "feel bottom" when the depth of water is equivalent to one-half the wavelength. As the wave approaches a lightweight bank, its track is adjusted. This involution made the tides to become inactive. As the flow becomes steeper, the width of the wave diminishes.

Answer:

a) 141.6m

b) 8.4m/s

Explanation:

a) to find the total displacement you use the following formula for each trajectory. Next you sum the results:

x_1=v_1t_1=(12m/s)(9s)=108m\\\\x_2=v_2t_2=(4.8m/s)(7s)=33.6m\\\\x_T=x_1+x_2=108m+33.6m=141.6m

hence, the total distance is 141.6m

b) the mean velocity of the total trajectory is given by:

v_m=\frac{v_1+v_2}{2}=\frac{12m/s+4.8m/s}{2}=8.4\frac{m}{s}

hence, the mean velocity is 8.4 m/s

Answer:

7 / 1

Explanation:

The ratio of their amplitude = one-seventh and the ratio of their amplitude = the ratio of their wavelength
