Question:
A deep water buoy a distance away from a nearby pier picks up waves with a period T1 = 24s. After 16 hours passed the buoy reports that the waves now have period T2 = 16s. These waves were all generated by a storm that does not move, therefore they all have the same point of origin. With this information can you determine; a) How far away is the storm from the buoy? b) When did this storm occur? c) How long it took for waves with a 22-second period to reach the buoy?
