Explain the differences in structure and use for life between oxygen gas in the atmosphere and ozone.

navik [9.2K]

Answer:

Most of the oxygen in the atmosphere is in the form of O2, which means it is made up of molecules containing two oxygen atoms. Ozone, however is O3, which means it is made up of molecules containing three oxygen atoms. O2 is what we breath, and what plants release from photosynthesis. Ozone occurs naturally high in the stratosphere, where it absorbs ultraviolet light, protecting us here on the surface from skin cancer. Ozone can also occur closer to the surface of the earth as a pollutant. It is formed from reactions with O2 and chemicals emitted from factories and cars. It comes in the form of smog.

So in general:

Oxygen (O2): Essential to human life

Ozone (O3) in the stratosphere: essential to protecting life on earth

Ozone (O3) on the surface of the earth: toxic to human life, caused by pollution

A short-wave radio antenna is supported by two guy wires, 155 ft and 175 ft long. Each wire is attached to the top of the antenn

Vladimir79 [104]

Answer:

163.8 ft

Explanation:

In triangle ABD

$AB$ = 155 ft

$Cos63 = \frac{BD}{AB} = \frac{BD}{155}\\BD = 155 Cos63 \\BD = 70.4 ft$

$Sin63 = \frac{AD}{AB} = \frac{AD}{155} \\AD = 166 Sin63\\AD = 148 ft$

Using Pythagorean theorem in triangle ADC

$AC^{2} = AD^{2} + DC^{2} \\175^{2} = 148^{2} + DC^{2} \\DC = 93.4 ft$

$d$ = distance between the anchor points

distance between the anchor points is given as

$d = BD + CD = 70.4 + 93.4\\d = 163.8 ft$

You need to repair a gate on the farm. The gate weighs 100 kg and pivots as indicated. A small diagonal bar supports the gate an

tekilochka [14]

Answer:

The force is $F = 3920 \ N$

Explanation:

The diagram for this question is shown on the first uploaded image

From the question we are told that

The weight of the gate is $G = 100\ kg$

The vertical component of F is $F_y = F\ sin \theta$

From the diagram , taking moment about the pivot we have

$W_g * 2 - F_y * 1 = 0$

Where $W_g$ is the weight of the gate evaluated as

$W_g = m_g * g = 100 * 9.8 = 980 \ N$

=> $980 * 2 - Fsin(30) * 1 = 0$

=> $F = \frac{1960}{sin(30)}$

=> $F = 3920 \ N$

Telephone signals are often transmitted over long distances by microwaves. What is the frequency of microwave radiation with a w

amm1812

Answer:

1) f= 8.6 GHz

2) t= 0.2 ms

Explanation:

Since microwaves are electromagnetic waves, they move at the same speed as the light in vacuum, i.e. 3*10⁸ m/s.
There exists a fixed relationship between the frequency (f) , the wavelength (λ) and the propagation speed in any wave, as follows:

$v = \lambda * f (1)$

Replacing by the givens, and solving for f, we get:

$f =\frac{c}{\lambda} =\frac{3e8m/s}{0.035m} = 8.57e9 Hz (2)$

⇒ f = 8.6 Ghz (with two significative figures)

Assuming that the microwaves travel at a constant speed in a straight line (behaving like rays) , we can apply the definition of average velocity, as follows:

$v =\frac{d}{t} (3)$

where v= c= speed of light in vacuum = 3*10⁸ m/s

d= distance between mountaintops = 52 km = 52*10³ m

Solving for t, we get:

$t = \frac{d}{c} = \frac{52e3m}{3e8m/s} = 17.3e-5 sec = 0.173e-3 sec = 0.173 ms (4)$

⇒ t = 0.2 ms (with two significative figures)
