Ocean tides are waves that have a period of 12 hours, an amplitude (in some places) of 1.50 m, and a speed of 750 km/hr. What is the distance between adjacent crests of these waves?

distance between adjacent crests = 9000 km

Explanation:

given data

time period = 12 hours

amplitude = 1.50 m

speed = 750 km/hr

solution

we get here distance between adjacent crests that is express as

distance between adjacent crests = speed * time ... 1

put here value and we get

distance between adjacent crests = 750 * 12

distance between adjacent crests = 9000 km
