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.

A jeweler working with a heated 47 g gold ring must lower the ring's temperature to make it safe to handle. If the ring is initi
Gelneren [198K]

Mass of gold m₁ = 47 g

Initial temperature of gold T₁ = 99 C

Specific heat of gold C₁ = 0.129 J/gC

final temperature T₂ = 38 C

Heat needed by the gold to cool down

Q =m₁ * C₁* ( T₁ - T₂)

Q = (47)(0.129)(99-38)

Q = 369.843 J

This heat will be given by the water

we need to find out mass of water m₂

and initial temperature of water is T₃ = 25 C

Specific heat of water C₂ = 4.184 J/gC

Q = m₂*C₂*(T₂ - T₃)

369.843 = m₂(4.184)(38-25)

m₂ = 6.8 g

Two satellites A and B of the same mass are orbiting Earth in concentric orbits. The distance of satellite B from Earth’s center
riadik2000 [5.3K]

Answer:

ratio of tangential velocity of satellite b and a will be 0.707

Explanation:

We have given distance of satellite B from satellite A is twice

So r_b=2r_a

Tangential speed of the satellite is given by

v=\sqrt{\frac{GM}{r}}, G is gravitational constant. M is mass of satellite and r is distance from the earth

We have to find the ratio of tangential velocities of b and a

From the relation we can see that tangential velocity is inversely proportional to square root of distance from earth

So \frac{v_b}{v_a}=\sqrt{\frac{r_a}{r_b}}

\frac{v_b}{v_a}=\sqrt{\frac{r_a}{2r_a}}

\frac{v_b}{v_a}=\sqrt{\frac{1}{2}}

\frac{v_b}{v_a}=0.707

So ratio of tangential velocity of satellite b and a will be 0.707
