    Tsunamis are fast-moving waves often generated by underwater earthquakes. In the deep ocean their amplitude is barely noticable, but upon reaching shore, they can rise up to the astonishing height of a six-story building. One tsunami, generated off the Aleutian islands in Alaska, had a wavelength of 885 km and traveled a distance of 3310 km in 4.09 h. (a) What was the speed (in m/s) of the wave? For reference, the speed of a 747 jetliner is about 250...

    A wave has a height of 1.5 m in water 5 m deep and a wave period of 6 s. Plot the horizontal component of velocity, the vertical component of acceleration, and the dynamic pressure at a point 2 m below the still water level versus time for a 6-s interval. Plot the three values on the same diagram and comment on the results.
