Which statement describes the horizontal motion of a horizontally launched projectile? a. the projectile’s acceleration is zero, so it’s velocity is zero. b. the projectile’s acceleration is -9.8m/s^2, so its velocity is changing. c. the projectile’s acceleration is zero, so it’s velocity is constant. d. the projectile’s acceleration is -9.8m/s^2, so its velocity is constant.

Afisherman notices that his boat is moving up and down periodically without any horizontal motion, owing to waves on the surface of the water. it takes a time of 2.20 s for the boat to travel from its highest point to its lowest, a total distance of 0.670 m . the fisherman sees that the wave crests are spaced a horizontal distance of 5.80 m apart. (a) how much is the wavelength? (b) find the period of the wave. (c) how fast are the waves traveling? (d) what is the amplitude a of each wave?
