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.

Find the lengths of each of the following vectors
Irina18 [472]

Answer:

Explanation:

Generally, length of vector means the magnitude of the vector.

So, given a vector

R = a•i + b•j + c•k

Then, it magnitude can be caused using

|R|= √(a²+b²+c²)

So, applying this to each of the vector given.

(a) 2i + 4j + 3k

The length is

L = √(2²+4²+3²)

L = √(4+16+9)

L = √29

L = 5.385 unit

(b) 5i − 2j + k

Note that k means 1k

The length is

L = √(5²+(-2)²+1²)

Note that, -×- = +

L = √(25+4+1)

L = √30

L = 5.477 unit

(c) 2i − k

Note that, since there is no component j implies that j component is 0

L = 2i + 0j - 1k

The length is

L = √(2²+0²+(-1)²)

L = √(4+0+1)

L = √5

L = 2.236 unit

(d) 5i

Same as above no is j-component and k-component

L = 5i + 0j + 0k

The length is

L = √(5²+0²+0²)

L = √(25+0+0)

L = √25

L = 5 unit

(e) 3i − 2j − k

The length is

L = √(3²+(-2)²+(-1)²)

L = √(9+4+1)

L = √14

L = 3.742 unit

(f) i + j + k

The length is

L = √(1²+1²+1²)

L = √(1+1+1)

L = √3

L = 1.7321 unit

Answer:

The maximum volume is 1417.87 inch^3

Explanation:

<u>Optimization Using Derivatives</u>

We have a 24x30 inch piece of metal and we need to make a rectangular box by cutting a square from each corner of the piece and bending up the sides. The width of the piece is 24 inches and its length is 30 inches

When we cut a square of each corner of side x, the base of the box (after bending up the sides) will be (24-2x) and (30-2x), width and length respectively. The volume of the box is

V=(24-2x)(30-2x)x

Operating

V=4x^3-108x^2+720x

To find the maximum value of V, we compute the first derivative and equate it to zero

V'=12x^2-216x+720=0

Simplifying by 12

x^2-18x+60=0

Completing squares

x^2-18x+81-81+60=0

(x-9)^2=21

We have two values for x

x=9+\sqrt{21}=13.58\ inch

x=9-\sqrt{21}=4.42\ inch

The first value is not feasible because it will produce a negative width (24-2(13.58))=-6.16

We'll keep only the solution

x=4.42\ inch

The width is

w=(24-2(4.42))=15.16\ inch

The length is

l=(30-2(4.42))=21.16\ inch

And the height

x=4.42\ inch

The maximum volume is

V=(15.16)(21.16)(4.42)=1417.87\ inch^3
