- Pepe and Alfredo are resting on an offshore raft after a swim. They estimate that 3 m separates a trough and an adjacent crest of surface waves on the lake. They count 14 crests that pass by the raft in 20 seconds. Calculate how fast the waves are moving.What is the wavelength (in meters) of an earthquake that shakes you with a frequency of 15.0 Hz and gets to another city 100.0 km away in 10.0 s?The speed of surface waves in water decreases as the water becomes shallower. Suppose waves travel across the surface of a lake with a speed of 2.3 m/s and a wavelength of 1.7 m. When these waves move into a shallower part of the lake, their speed decreases to 1.9 m/s, though their frequency remains the same. Find the wavelength of the waves in the shallower water.
- Earthquakes at fault lines in Earth's crust create seismic waves, which are longitudinal (P-waves) or transverse (S-waves). The P-waves have a speed of about 9 km/s. Estimate the average bulk modulus of Earth's crust given that the density of rock is about 2100 kg/m3. PaEarthquakes at fault lines in Earth's crust create seismic waves, which are longitudinal (P-waves) or transverse (S-waves). The P-waves have a speed of about 6 km/s.
