The vertical displacement of an ocean wave is described by the function, y = A sin(ωt - kx). k is called the wave number (k = 2π

/λ) and has a value of k = 18 rad/m. The remaining values are A = 9.5 m and ω = 14.5 rad/s.
a) Using y = A sin(B), input an expression for B where the wave would be traveling in the -x-direction. sig.gif?tid=7M79-31-9F-4E-8624-20536

b) What is the wave's velocity in m/s?

c) What is the wave's amplitude in m?

Answer:

Explanation:

a ) y = A sin(B)  ; here B is the phase of the wave which moves so that it remains constant

ωt - kx = constant

differentiating on both sides

ωdt - kdx =0

ωdt =   kdx

dx / dt = ω / k

wave velocity = ω / k

b ) ω = 14.5 rad / s ,

k = 18 rad / m

wave velocity = ω / k

= 14.5 / 18

= .805 m /s

80.5 cm / s

c )

Amplitude = A

= 9.5 m

KonstantinChe [14]

Answer:

2.145×10^-10 V or 0.2145nV

Explanation:

From hf=eV

h= Plank's constant = 6.6×10^-34JS

f= frequency of the electromagnetic wave = 5.2×10^4 Hz

e= electronic charge= 1.6×10^-19 C

V= voltage

V= hf/e

V= 6.6×10^-34JS × 5.2×10^4 Hz/ 1.6×10^-19 C

V= 2.145×10^-10 V or 0.2145nV

Therefore the voltage created is 2.145×10^-10 V or 0.2145nV

After watching a show about submarines, Jamil wants to learn more about the oceans. Which question could be answered through sci
Georgia [21]
The best question that could prompt a scientific investigation is: <u>What substances dissolve in ocean water?</u> 

This way the person experimenting can use several variables and make observations. Upon making observations, the person can be able to gather as much data as he can in order to answer the original question that he asked.
