The ozone layer that is inside the stratosphere blocks UV radiation.

The ozone layer contains high concentrations of ozone relative to other parts of the atmosphere. This was discovered by Charles Fabry and Henri Buisson who are both French Physicists. 

The ozone in the earth's stratosphere is created through ultraviolet light striking a group of ordinary oxygen molecules containing two oxygen atoms, subsequently splitting them into individual oxygen atoms and finally these said atomic oxygen then combines with unbroken O2 to create ozone (O3).

Answer:

Ozone Layer

Explanation:

The atmosphere of Earth is composed of 21% of Oxygen. Ultraviolet radiation is absorbed by the ozone layer which is present inside the stratosphere.  Actually, the UV-radiation is used to break the oxygen molecule. The free oxygen atom then joins with another oxygen molecule and forms ozone (O₃). The ozone-oxygen cycle converts harmful UV -radiation into heat.

Does the mass of a pendulum affects the period of oscillation
pshichka [43]
Mass does not affect the pendulum's swing. The longer the length of string, the farther the pendulum falls; and therefore, the longer the period, or back and forth swing of the pendulum. The greater the amplitude, or angle, the farther the pendulum falls; and therefore, the longer the period.

A 600g toy train completes 10 laps of its circular track in 1 min 20s. If the radius of the track is 1.2 m, Find the centripetal
Lynna [10]

Wow !  This will take more than one step, and we'll need to be careful
not to trip over our shoe laces while we're stepping through the problem.

The centripetal acceleration of any object moving in a circle is

                          (speed-squared)  /  (radius of the circle)  .

Notice that we won't need to use the mass of the train.

We know the radius of the track.  We don't know the trains speed yet,
but we do have enough information to figure it out.  That's what we
need to do first.

Speed  =  (distance traveled) / (time to travel the distance).

Distance = 10 laps of the track.   Well how far is that ? ? ?

1 lap = circumference of the track = (2π) x (radius) =  2.4π  meters

10 laps =  24π  meters.

Time = 1 minute 20 seconds  =  80 seconds

The trains speed is  (distance) / (time)

                               =  (24π meters) / (80 seconds)

                               =        0.3 π  meters/second .

NOW ... finally, we're ready to find the centripetal acceleration.

                                 <span> (speed)²  /  (radius)

                           =    (0.3π m/s)²  /  (1.2 meters)

                           =    (0.09π m²/s²)  /  (1.2 meters)

                           =    (0.09π  /  1.2)   m/s²

                           =          0.236  m/s²  .        (rounded)

If there's another part of the problem that wants you to find
the centripetal FORCE ...

Well,       Force = (mass) · (acceleration) .

We know the mass, and we ( I ) just figured out the acceleration,
so you'll have no trouble calculating the centripetal force.       </span>
