1.A sailor notices that his boat is moving up and down periodicallyowing to waves on the surface of the water. It takes 2.5 s for theboat to travel from its highest point to its lowest point, a totaldistance of 6.2 m. The sailor sees that the wave crests are spaced8.0 m apart. (a) How fast are the waves traveling? (b) What is theamplitude of each wave? (c) If the total vertical distance traveledby the boat was half as much, but everything else remains the same,how would the answers in parts (a) and (b) be affected?
