A wave with a height of 5 feet and a wavelength of 15 feet has a wave base of <u>7.5 feet</u>.
A. 7.5 feet
<u>Explanation:</u>
Wave base defines the depth of the water when it is in still condition.
Wave base is half of wavelength.
Wave base = wavelength/2
Given,
Wavelength = 15 feet
So, wave base = 15 feet/2 = 7.5 feet
When the wave height is divided by wavelength then it gives the steepness of the wave.
Therefore, the wave base is 7.5feet.
That would be option A.
Good luck!
D. The dependent variable will change based on the value of the independent variable
I don't know if this is correct but I think A <span />
