<span>Ice wedging is caused by water freezing and thawing. During this process of conversion of the water into ice the water is expanded and crack in the ground is formed. These cracks are formed duing the winter, when the water freezes, expands and the enlarges the cracks. In summer, when the ice melts more water is accumulated in the cracks and the process repeats.</span>
Distance is 50 km
Displacement is 10 km
<u>Explanation:</u>
Given:
Distance toward south, x = 25 km
Distance towards west, y = 10 km
Distance towards north, z = 15 km
(a) Total distance, D = ?
Total distance, D = x + y + z
D = 25 + 10 + 15
D = 50km
(b) Displacement, d = ?
Displacement = final position - initial position
= 10 - 0 km
= 10km
I would say b as well. I’m sorry if it’s wrong
Answer:
The sound level of the 26 geese is 
Explanation:
From the question we are told that
The sound level is 
The number of geese is 
Generally the intensity level of sound is mathematically represented as
The intensity of sound level in dB for one goose is mathematically represented as
![Z_1 = 10 log [\frac{I}{I_O} ]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=Z_1%20%3D%2010%20log%20%5B%5Cfrac%7BI%7D%7BI_O%7D%20%5D)
Where I_o is the threshold level of intensity with value 
is the intensity for one goose in 
For 26 geese the intensity would be

Then the intensity of 26 geese in dB is
![Z_{26} = 10 log[\frac{26 I }{I_o} ]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=Z_%7B26%7D%20%3D%2010%20log%5B%5Cfrac%7B26%20I%20%7D%7BI_o%7D%20%5D)
![Z_{26} = 10 log (\ \ 26 * [\frac{ I }{I_o} ]\ \ )](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=Z_%7B26%7D%20%3D%2010%20log%20%28%5C%20%5C%2026%20%2A%20%20%5B%5Cfrac%7B%20I%20%7D%7BI_o%7D%20%5D%5C%20%5C%20%29)
![Z_{26} = 10 log (\ \ 26 \ \ ) * (\ \ 10 log [\frac{ I }{I_o} ]\ \ )](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=Z_%7B26%7D%20%3D%2010%20log%20%28%5C%20%5C%2026%20%20%5C%20%5C%20%29%20%2A%20%20%20%28%5C%20%5C%20%2010%20log%20%5B%5Cfrac%7B%20I%20%7D%7BI_o%7D%20%5D%5C%20%5C%20%29)
From the law of logarithm we have that
![Z_{26} = 10 log 26 + 10 log [\frac{I}{I_0} ]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=Z_%7B26%7D%20%3D%2010%20log%2026%20%2B%20%2010%20log%20%5B%5Cfrac%7BI%7D%7BI_0%7D%20%5D)
