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...
