Waves on a swimming pool propagate at 0.423 m/s. You splash the water at one end of the pool and observe the wave go to the opposite end, reflect, and return in 37.7 s. How far away is the other end

L = 7.97 m

Explanation:

Given velocity V = 0.423 m/s, time 37.7 s

To find Distance S=?

Solution:

as the distance traveled is twice of the length of swimming pool

S=2L

we knows that S = V * t

2 L = 0.423 m/s * 37.7 s

L = 7.97 m
