"As you sit in a fishing boat, you notice that 12 waves pass the boat every 45 s. If the distance from one crest to the next is

9.2 m , what is the speed of these waves?"
Physics

Answer:

2.4564 m/s

Explanation:

Number of waves in 1 second

\dfrac{12}{45}=0.267\ Hz

This is the frequency 0.267 Hz

The distance mentioned in the question is the

\lambda = Wavelength = 9.2 m

The speed of wave is

v=f\lambda

\Rightarrow v=0.267\times 9.2

\Rightarrow v=2.4564\ m/s

The speed of the wave is 2.4564 m/s

give an example of motion in which displacement of the particle is zero but acceleration is not zero in journey?
BartSMP [9]

Motion of a ball thrown by a person upwards and caught after some time is an example of motion in which displacement of the particle is zero but acceleration is not zero in journey.

The displacement of the ball is zero because the starting and end point of the motion are same, i.e, the person's hands.During its motion, the acceleration of ball is constant and non zero called as acceleration due to gravity, g= -9.8 m/s². The velocity of ball is continuously changing. It first decreases during the upward motion of the ball and then increases during the downward journey.The acceleration remains constant and non zero all the time.
