Two boats -- Boat A and Boat B -- are anchored a distance of 15.1 meters apart. The incoming water waves force the boats to oscillate up and down, making 5 complete cycles every 27.7 seconds. When Boat A is at its peak, Boat B is at its low point. There is one crest between the two boats. The vertical distance between Boat A and Boat B at their extreme is 11.3 meters. Determine the wavelength of the wave in m to the nearest 0.1 m.

Two boats -- Boat A and Boat B -- are anchored a distance of 13.8 meters apart. The incoming water waves force the boats to oscillate up and down, making 8 complete cycles every 27.7 seconds. When Boat A is at its peak, Boat B is at its low point. There is one crest between the two boats. The vertical distance between Boat A and Boat B at their extreme is 10.4 meters. Determine the wavelength of the wave in...

Two boats are separated by a distance of 60 meters. The boats start a rest and accelerate towards each other at a constant rate of 1 m/s2. A dolphin starts mid-way between the two boats, swimming from one boat to the other at a constant speed of 14 m/s. The dolphin continues swimming back and forth between the boats until the boats crash together. What is the total distance the dolphin travelled? What is the speed of the boats when...

1) A person starts rocking a boat at a steady rate, thus producing sinusoidal waves on the surface of the water. This person causes the boat to oscillate 72 times per minute, each oscillation producing a wave crest 9 cm above the undisturbed level of the water. The waves reach the shore (24 m away) in approximately 10 seconds. At a given instant, approximately how many wave crests are there between the boat and the shore?

A boat is moving to the right at 5.0 m/s with respect to the
water. An ocean wave is moving to the left, opposite the motion of
the boat. The waves have 2.0 m between the top of the crests and
the bottom of the troughs. The period of the waves is 8.3 s, and
their wavelength is 110 m. The water wave acts like a cosine
function as ?(?, ?) = ? cos(?? + ?? + ?). At one...

A fisherman notices that his boat is moving up and down periodically, owing to waves on the surface of the water. It takes 2.9 s for the boat to travel from its highest point to its lowest, a total distance of 0.60 m. The fisherman sees that the wave crests are spaced 6.6 m apart. A. How fast are the waves traveling? Express your answer in meters per second. B. What is the amplitude of each wave? Express your answer...

A fisherman notices that his boat is moving up and down periodically without any horizontal motion, owing to waves on the surface of the water. It takes a time of 2.90s for the boat to travel from its highest point to its lowest, a total distance of 0.630m . The fisherman sees that the wave crests are spaced a horizontal distance of 5.60m apart. Part A How much is the wavelength? express your answers in 3 sig. fig. Part B...
