The speed that a tsunami can travel is modeled by the equation , where s is the speed in kilometers per hour and d is the average depth of the water in kilometers. What is the approximate depth of water for a tsunami traveling at 200 kilometers per hour?.

Sagot :

0.32 km

How to reach the answer:

The formula below provides the tsunami's speed in response to the query.

s = 356√d

when the tsunami's speed is 200 km/h, the equation's "s" is changed to "200," and the equation of speed is then expressed as follows.

200 = 356√d

The equation can be changed to compute the depth of the water as,

√d = 200÷356

√d = 0.562

Now on squaring both sides:

(√d)² = (0.562)²

d = (0.562)² = 0.316 or 0.32

Therefore the approximate depth of water for a tsunami travelling at 200km/h is 0.32 km
