Imagine you are sitting on a surfboard in the ocean, waiting to catch a big wave. when the ocean is still, you are sitting at a point that would be the midpoint (the undisturbed position) of any waves that come your way. you look out to see and see a set of waves coming your way. what you see is actually a pattern of troughs followed be crests of the waves moving toward you and the shore. the distance between the crests is 5 meters. a crest passes you every 20 seconds.

answer these questions:

a. what is the wavelength?

b. what is the frequency?

c. what is the wave velocity?

The temperature at a point (x, y) is t(x, y), measured in degrees celsius. a bug crawls so that its position after t seconds is given by x = 6 + t , y = 8 + 1 3 t, where x and y are measured in centimeters. the temperature function satisfies tx(3, 9) = 5 and ty(3, 9) = 4. how fast is the temperature rising on the bug's path after 3 seconds? (round your answer to two decimal places.)
