Answer: The depletion of the ozone layer is due to CFC (chloro fluoro carbon) which is widely used in air conditioner and refrigeration.

Explanation:

Ozone layer prevents the harmful radiation from entering the earth's surface.

Ultraviolet radiation is very harmful radiation. Exposure of this radiation can cause Skin cancer. It is the main cause of the sunburn.

The depletion of the ozone layer is due to CFC (chloro fluoro carbon) which is widely used in air conditioner and refrigeration.

CFC is broken down by ultraviolet radiation. Then, the chlorine is released. This chlorine reacts with oxygen. In this way, it destroys the ozone molecule.

inessss [21]

Answer:

$t=0.193s$

Explanation:

What is said is that the meter fell d=18.3cm=0.183m under the action of gravity. We can use the formula for accelerated motion:

$d=v_0t+\frac{at^2}{2}$

Since it departed from rest it will mean that:

$d=\frac{at^2}{2}$

So our time will be:

$t=\sqrt{\frac{2d}{a}}$

Which for our values is:

$t=\sqrt{\frac{2(0.183m)}{(9.81m/s^2)}}=0.193s$
