How do polar bears use albedo to survive

Physics
1 answer:
netineya [11]4 years ago
4 0

They rely on albedo (it’s the fraction of solar energy, which is short-wave, that’s reflected from the Earth back into space, it’s how ‘reflective’ the Earth’s surface is) to reflect a lot because if it doesn't the ice caps will melt and polar bears will lose their home

What is the relationship between speed and kinetic energy?
kobusy [5.1K]

Answer:

Kinetic energy depends on the velocity of the object squared. This means that when the velocity of an object doubles, its kinetic energy quadruples.

An ideal battery would produce an extraordinarily large current if "shorted" by connecting the positive and negative terminals w
liubo4ka [24]

Answer:

Resistance, R=0.529\ \Omega

Explanation:

Given that,

Voltage of the battery, V = 9 volts

Current produced in the circuit, I = 17 A

We need to find the resistance when shorted by a wire of negligible resistance. It is a case of Ohm's law. The voltage is given by :

V=IR

R=\dfrac{V}{I}

R=\dfrac{9\ V}{17\ A}

R=0.529\ \Omega

So, the resistance in the circuit is 0.529 ohms. Hence, this is the required solution.

Determine qual é a carga elétrica de um corpo que possui 1 milhão de partículas?
MaRussiya [10]

Answer:

This can be translated to:

"find the electrical charge of a body that has 1 million of particles".

First, it will depend on the charge of the particles.

If all the particles have 1 electron more than protons, we will have that the charge of each particle is q = -e = -1.6*10^-19 C

Then the total charge of the body will be:

Q = 1,000,000*-1.6*10^-19 C = -1.6*10^-13 C

If we have the inverse case, where we in each particle we have one more proton than the number of electrons, the total charge will be the opposite of the one of before (because the charge of a proton is equal in magnitude but different in sign than the charge of an electron)

Q = 1.6*10^-13 C

But commonly, we will have a spectrum with the particles, where some of them have a positive charge and some of them will have a negative charge, so we will have a probability of charge that is peaked at Q = 0, this means that, in average, the charge of the particles is canceled by the interaction between them.
