Seismologist have just registered a large underwater earthquake near sand point, alaska, that is big enough to produce a tsunami. the ocean depth is unknown but it took five hours to reach monterey california. estimate the depth of the ocean where the tsunami originated.

4002.79 m

Step-by-step explanation:

The distance between Sand Point, Alaska and Monterey California is 3,567 km. The distance velocity equation is given by

d=vt

3567=v*5

v=3567/5=713.4 km/hr=198.16667 m/s

Wave Speed Formula is given by

where g is the gravity acceleration 9.8 m/s and d is depth, solving for depth we have that

answer: 5 17/33 % (to the tenth)

step-by-step explanation:

he guessed: 34.5 pounds

actual weight is 32.7

there for he is off:

34.5 -32.7 = 1.8

32.7 is the 100%

1.8 represents %? of 32.7

therefore:

32.7   - 100%

1.8     -     x%

x= 1.8*100%/32.7% = 18*100%/327%

x=1800%/327%   = (5 165/327)%

to the tenth:

5 17/33 %
