Answer:

Explanation:

Yes, If tangential velocity is your reference frame

If R is the radius of earth

and ω is the angular velocity = (2π / (24(3600)) radians/s

Tangential velocity at the equator is

v = ωR = (2π / (24(3600))(6 370 000 m) = 463 m/s

Tangential velocity at a point half way to the pole (45° latitude)

v = ωRcosΘ = 463cos45 = 328 m/s

Bats use a process called echolocation to find their food. This involves giving out sound waves that hit possible prey or food.
cupoosta [38]
The type of waves used by bats are sound waves. Most of the species use their larynx to produce ultrasound waves in the frequency range of 20 to 200 kilohertz.
These sound waves are echoed, reflected, by surroundings, in this case food or prey. These reflections are received by the specialized receptor cells in the ears of bats. The reflections are analyzed by the brain to make an image.
Fun fact: The brain cells of bats are also specialized to better analyze the frequency of ultrasound used by the bat.

What is accurate about the planet’s climate system?
ElenaW [278]

The accurate about the planet’s climate system is the wind

because heating near the equator blows the wind to drive the convection cells in the atmosphere, and the friction created by the rotation of the spherical planet in the atmosphere causes the wind to appear to bend left or right across the surface of the planet. ..

The climate system is a highly complex global system consisting of five major components: the atmosphere, the ocean, the cryosphere (cryosphere), the land surface, the biosphere, and the interactions between them.

Solar energy drives the climate by heating the surface of the earth unevenly. Ice also reflects incoming sunlight, further cooling the poles. Temperature differences move the ocean and atmosphere as they work together to disperse heat throughout the globe.
