some antarctic explorers heading due south toward the pole travel 50. km during the first day. A sudden snow storm slows their p

rogress and they move only 30. km in the second day. With plenty of rest they travel the final 65 km the last day and reach the pole.What was the explorers' displacement?

Answer:

<h2> 145km</h2>

Explanation:

The displacement is a vector quantity, it tells how far away from a point a distance or a destination is

given that the distance covered are

50. km, 30. km, and 65 km

the displacement is expressed as

= 50+30+65

=145km

We actually performed straight addition because in all the movement the antarctic explorers did not record any deviation from the initial direction, hence they maintained a linear movement from the beginning to the end

Brut [27]
<h2>Answer: Albedo </h2>

The <u>albedo</u> is an amount that expresses the percentage of radiation a surface reflects with respect to the incident radiation.

In other words:

This amount allows us to know the level of radiation that <u>reflects</u> a surface compared to the total <u>radiation it receives</u>.

According to this, light surfaces such as snow covered ground or white sand will have a higher albedo than dark surfaces such as carbon covered ground. It is also important to note, the albedo will be higher on glossy surfaces than on matte surfaces.

It should be noted that the albedo of the Earth is on average about 37\%, which means that part of the radiation received by the Sun is absorbed and another part reflected back to space.

The human ear canal is about 2.3 cm long. If it is regarded as a tube open at one end and closed at the eardrum, what is the fun
mariarad [96]

Answer:

For the given conditions the fundamental frequency is 3728.26 Hertz

Explanation:

We know that for a pipe open at one end and closed at other end the fundamental frequency is given by

f=\frac{V_{s}}{4L}

where

f is the fundamental frequency

V_{s} is the speed of sound in air in the surrounding conditions.

L = Length of the pipe

Applying values we get and using speed of sound as 343m/s we get

f=\frac{343}{4\times 2.3\times 10^{-2}}=3728.26Hz

What was the basic shortcoming of the Greek philosophers approach to studying the material world?
baherus [9]
<span>Greek philosophers had a basic approach to studying the world. They like to question the world and incite debates but they never really bothered to gather any real information, just discussions. Due to this, many ideas about matters were put out to be discussed, but they were never resolved.</span>

Technician A says that torque-to-yield head bolts are special bolts that are reusable. Technician A says that main bearing clear
Blizzard [7]

Answer: D

Neither A nor B

Explanation:

In order to check the clearances for rod and main bearings, you need a set of micrometers and a dial-bore gauge

Measuring the inside diameter of a main or rod bearing will require a dial bore gauge. The best ones to use are accurate down to 0.0001-inch.

So, both technician A and B are incorrect
