Answer:
Snail's speed = = 0.0125m/s
Turtle's speed = = 0.1375m/s
Explanation:
Let the snail's speed be x m/s
The turtle's speed then is 11x m/s
Speed = Distance ÷ Time
Since speed and distance are directly proportional;
The ratio of the distances snail and turtle cover before they meet is x:11x respectively.
Simplified, the ratio of snail distance : turtle distance = 1:11
So snail covers a distance of × 360 = 30m
And turtle covers a distance of × 360 = 330m
The time each took before they met is 40 × 60 = 2400 seconds
Snail's speed = = 0.0125m/s
Turtle's speed = = 0.1375m/s

Answer:
Amplitude, A = 0.049 meters
Explanation:
Given that,
A harmonic wave travels in the positive x direction at 6 m/s along a taught string. A fixed point on the string oscillates as a function of time according to the equation :
.......(1)
The general equation of a wave is given by :
.......(2)
A is amplitude of wave
On comparing equation (1) and (2) we get :
A = 0.049 meters
So, the amplitude of the wave is 0.049 meters.
