Question

A wave travels 12 m east in 3.0 s. what is the velocity of the wave? 0.25 m/s 4.0 m/s 15 m/s 36 m/s

Answer 1

Important Formulas:

`v=(d)/(t)`

velocity(measured in m/s) = distance(measured in meters) / time(measured in seconds)

__________________________________________________________

Given:

`d=12m`

`t=3s`

`v=?`

__________________________________________________________

Finding velocity:

`v=(d)/(t)`

`v=(12)/(3)`

`\fbox{v = 4m/s}` or
`\fbox{Option B}`
