BRAINLIEST+10PTS: does ozone absorb just harmful UV rays? Or just a random portion of UV?

Physics

Answer:As sunlight passes through the atmosphere, all UVC and most UVB is absorbed by ozone, water vapour, oxygen and carbon dioxide. UVA is not filtered as significantly by the atmosphere. Is there a connection between ozone depletion and UV radiation? Ozone is a particularly effective absorber of UV radiation.

Answer:

The ozone layer absorbs a random portion of UV rays.

Explanation:

The ozone layer absorbs a random portion of UV rays because the only way UV rays could be harmful to your skin is if there is too much of it. All UV rays are bad, but the only reason you get harmed from them is if you absorb an excessive amount of them.

Blizzard [7]

The average speed of the whole travel is equal to <u>400 mph</u>.

Why?

From the statement, we know that whole travel is divided into three parts. For the first part (traveling from New York to Chicago), we have that it was 3.25 hours and the covered distance was half of the total distance (1400mi). For the second part, we have that it was 1 hour (layover time), and the covered no distance. For the third part (traveling from Chicago to Los Angeles), we have that it was 2.75 hours, and it took the other half of the total distance (1400mi).

We can calculate the average speed of the whol travel using the following formula:

AverageSpeed=\frac{distance_{1}+distance_{2}+distance_{3}}{time_{1}+time{2}+time_{3}}

Now, substituting and calculating, we have:

AverageSpeed=\frac{1400mi+0mi+1400mi}{3.25h+1h+2.75h}

AverageSpeed=\frac{2800mi}{7h}=400mph

Hence, we have the average speed of the whole travel is equal to 400 mph.

Have a nice day!

If half of the weight of a flatbed truck is supported by its two drive wheels, what is the maximum acceleration it can achieve o
Scilla [17]

Answer:

Maximum acceleration will be equal to 3.43m/sec^2

Explanation:

We have given coefficient of kinetic friction \mu _k=0.7

And coefficient of static friction \mu _s=1

Acceleration due to gravity g=9.8m/sec^2

When truck moves maximum force will be equal to F=\mu _kmg

It is given that half of the weight is supported by its drive wheels

So force required =\frac{\mu _kmg}{2}

From newtons law maximum acceleration will be equal to a=\frac{\frac{\mu _kmg}{2}}{m}=\frac{\mu _kg}{2}=\frac{0.7\times 9.8}{2}=3.43m/sec^2

barxatty [35]

Answer: 75 ft

Explanation:

Breaking distance = Speed²/ 20

= 30²/20

= 45 feet

Stopping distance = Speed + braking distance

= 30 + 45

= 75 ft
