Ocean waves of time period 10 s have wave velocity 15 `ms^(-1)`. Find : the horizontal distance between a wave crest and its adjoining wave trough.

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To solve the problem of finding the horizontal distance between a wave crest and its adjoining wave trough, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Identify the given values - Time period (T) = 10 seconds - Wave velocity (V) = 15 m/s ### Step 2: Calculate the wavelength (λ) The wavelength (λ) can be calculated using the formula: ...
