Given that:
Distance , s = 18.5 m
Velocity , v = 3.85 m/s
Time , t =?
Since,
Velocity = distance/time
or
Time= distance/velocity
time= 18.5/ 3.85
time= 4.8 s
So the time elapse between the release of the ball and the ball passing home plate is 4.8 seconds.
Explanation:
Speed of the marathon runner, v = 9.51 mi/hr
Distance covered by the runner, d = 26.220 mile
Let t is the time taken by the marathon runner. We know that the speed of the runner is given by total distance divided by total time taken. Mathematically, it is given by :



t = 2.75 hours
Since, 1 hour = 60 minutes
t = 165 minutes
Since, 1 minute = 60 seconds
t = 9900 seconds
Hence, this is the required solution.
Pitch is directly related to the frequency of the sound. In this item, we are given that the frequency of the sound is higher compared to those which are audible to the human being's ears. The pitch therefore of the dog's whistle is high.
On the other hand, the frequency and the wavelength of a certain wave are inversely proportional. This means that the high frequency wave will have a short wavelength.
Hence, the answer to this item would have to be "high pitch with a short wavelength"
The answer to this item is the second option.
