A fisherman notices that his boat is moving up and down periodically without any horizontal motion, owing to waves on the surface of the water. It takes a time of 2.00 s for the boat to travel from its highest point to its lowest, a total distance of 0.690 m . The fisherman sees that the wave crests are spaced a horizontal distance of 5.60 m apart.

Part A

How fast are the waves traveling?

Part B

What is the amplitude A of each wave?

Express your answer in meters using three significant figures.

Astronauts on the first trip to Mars take along a simple pendulum that has a period on earth of 2.60 s . The period on Mars turns out to be 4.25 s .

Part A
