A student with a third floor dormitory window 32 feet off the ground tosses a water balloon straight up in the air with an initial velocity of 16 feet per second. It turns out that the instantaneous velocity of the water balloon is given by the velocity function v(t) = -32t + 16, where v is measured in feet per second and t is measured in seconds. Let s(t) represent the height of the water balloon above the ground at time...

A certain ocean wave has a wave function given by the formula: where y(x, t) is the position of a water molecule above sea level at time t at a distance a from the origin. All distances are given in meters and times are given in seconds. If you and I are standing 10 m apart along the path of the wave (i.e. I am 10 m "downstream" from you), how long after the wave passes you will it take...
