Homework Statement
Water waves in a shallow dish are 6.0 cm long. At one point the water oscillates up and down at a rate of 4.8 oscillations per second.
a. What is the speed of the water waves?
b. What is the period of the water waves?
Homework Equations
frequency = 1/period
Speed = wavelength x frequency
The Attempt at a Solution
Guessing 6.0 cm is thr wavelength but that wouldn't help much since I'm looking for the period and I don't even know what oscillations are.
