You are watching waves come in to the shore readyto go in. Click on the video linked to image at right, or use the following data

You see a wave train come in and 5 waves come in over 60 seconds. You estimate the wavelength to be 10 meters.

5. Calculate the period of the wave.6. Calculate the frequency.7. What is the wave’s velocity?
