Respuesta :

The speed of the ocean wave is 1.6 m/s.

What is speed?

Speed can be defined as the rate of change in distance.

To calculate the speed of the ocean wave, we use the formula below

Formula:

  • V = d/t............ Equation 1

Where:

  • V = Velocity of the ocean wave
  • d = Total distance covered by the wave
  • t = Time taken to cover the distance

From the question,

Given:

  • d = 8 m
  • t = 5 seconds

Substitute these values into equation 1

  • V = 8/5
  • V = 1.6 m/s

Hence, The speed of the ocean wave is 1.6 m/s.
