I'll be happy to solve the problem using the information that
you gave in the question, but I have to tell you that this wave
is not infrared light.

If it was a wave of infrared, then its speed would be close
to 300,000,000 m/s, not 6 m/s, and its wavelength would be
less than 0.001 meter, not 12 meters.

For the wave you described . . .

             Frequency  =  (speed)  /  (wavelength)

                                 =  (6 m/s)  /  (12 m)

                                 =      0.5 / sec

                                 =      0.5 Hz .  

(If it were an infrared wave, then its frequency would be
greater than 300,000,000,000 Hz.)

Frequency(ν) = speed of infrared light( c )/wavelength( λ ) = 6/12 = 1/2 = 0.5 s^-1 .

25. Explain why the speed of sound is faster in solids than in gases. Include two other factors Chapter 17 says the speed of sou
aksik [14]
In solids, particles or atom are very closely arranged compared to gasses. When these particles are arranged in such proximity, vibrations from sound are very easily transmitted from one particle to another in the solid. Hence, the sound vibrations can travel through the solid medium more quickly than through a gas medium.
Speed of sound also depends on its frequency and the wavelength.

Andy Petite pitches a 0.8 kg baseball with a velocity of 67 m/s. Josh Hamilton
kodGreya [7K]

The Impulse delivered to the baseball is 89 kgm/s.

To solve the problem above, we use the formula of impulse.

⇒ Formula:

  • I = m(v-u)................. Equation 1

Where:

  • I = Impulse delivered to the baseball
  • m = mass of the baseball
  • v = Final velocity of the baseball
  • u = initial speed of the baseball

From the question,

⇒ Given:

  • m = 0.8 kg
  • u = 67 m/s
  • v = -44 m/s

⇒ Substitute these values into equation 1

  • I = 0.8(-44-67)
  • I = 0.8(-111)
  • I = -88.8
  • I ≈ -89 kgm/s

Note: The negative tells that the impulse is in the same direction as the final velocity and therefore can be ignored.

Hence, The Impulse delivered to the baseball is 89 kgm/s.
