Answer:

Wave speed is the distance a wave travels in a given amount of time, such as the number of meters it travels per second. Wave speed is related to wavelength and wave frequency by the equation: Speed = Wavelength x Frequency. This equation can be used to calculate wave speed when wavelength and frequency are known.

Explanation:

First, let's review the ideal gas law, PV = nRT. In this equation, 'P' is the pressure in atmospheres, 'V' is the volume in liters, 'n' is the number of particles in moles, 'T' is the temperature in Kelvin and 'R' is the ideal gas constant (0.0821 liter atmospheres per moles Kelvin).

Answer:

$W_n_e_t=7.648512 \approx 7.6J$

$K.E=0.8J$

$v=0.7844645406 \approx 0.78m/s$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

Mass of pitcher $M= 2.6kg$

Force on pitcher $f=8.8N$

Distance traveled $48cm=>0.48m$

Coefficient of friction $\mu=0.28$

a)Generally frictional force is mathematically given by

$F=\mu N$

$F=0.28*2.6*9.8$

$F=7.1344N$

Generally work done on the pitcher is mathematically given as

$W_n_e_t=W_f+W_F$

$W_f=8.8*0.48=>4.224N\\W_F=7.1344*0.48=>3.424512N$

$W_n_e_t=4.224-3.424512$

$W_n_e_t=0.799488\approx 0.8J$

b)Generally K.E can be given mathematically as

$K.E= W_n_e_t$

Therefore

$K.E=0.8J$

c)Generally the equation for kinetic energy is mathematically represented by

$K.E=1/2mv^2$

$0.8=1/2mv^2$

Velocity as subject

$v=\sqrt{\frac{K.E*2}{m} }$

$v=\sqrt{\frac{0.8*2}{2.6} }$

$v=0.7844645406 \approx 0.78m/s$

Semenov [28]

The nebular hypothesis is the name of the theory where gravitational attraction caused bits of matter to collapse, eventually forming a solar system.
