Phys1006 HW6

1. A wave traveling around a stadium seats spectators in 39 seconds, traveling 853 seats. 2. The wave width is the distance from the leading edge to trailing edge, taking spectators 1.8 seconds to stand and sit. 3. The wave speed is calculated to be 21.9 seats/second and the wave width is 12 seats.
