Answer:
1.87 s
Explanation:
d = distance traveled by the water wave = 64 m
t = time taken to travel the distance = 14 s
[tex]v[/tex] = speed of water wave
Speed of water wave is given as
[tex]v=\frac{d}{t}[/tex]
[tex]v=\frac{64}{14}[/tex]
[tex]v[/tex] = 4.6 m/s
[tex]\lambda[/tex] = wavelength of the wave = 859 cm = 8.59 m
T = period of the wave
period of the wave is given as
[tex]T = \frac{\lambda }{v}[/tex]
[tex]T = \frac{8.59 }{4.6}[/tex]
T = 1.87 s
