A storm generates large waves in the Pacific Ocean. On november 25, 208, 6pm, swell with a wave height of 5m reaches an exposed location at the coast of Southern California. At 6 am of the next day, the wave height is 4m. The water depth within 100km of the coast is 1000m and 3000m everywhere else. All waves have a steepness of ak=0.25.
a) How far offshore were the waves generated by that storm?
b) At what date and time do waves with a height of 2m reach the same location at the coast?
c) How long does it take a tsunami with a wave length of 120km to travel the same distance (travelling perpendicular towards shore)?
Numbers and figures are an essential part of our world, necessary for almost everything we do every day. As important…
