What important factor does the ozone layer serve in earth's atmosphere?

Physics
1 answer:
Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]4 years ago
3 0

The Ozone layer is responsible for the absorption of harmful radiation from the sun before it hits the surface or exterior structure of our planet. It is known to be a belt of a known occurring gas, known as “ozone” which is sealed around the Earth’s atmosphere. It serves as a shield, which absorbs most of the sun’s ultraviolet radiation.

The atom in the diagram has a neutral charge how many protons does it have
Olegator [25]

Explanation:

This should be of help:

An atom is made up of three subatomic particles:

  • Protons are the positively charged particles.
  • Electrons are the negatively charged particles.
  • Neutrons do not carry any charges.

A neutral atom is an atom that has not lost or gained any amount of electrons.

In a neutral atom;

                the number of protons and electrons are the same

 Usually atoms are designated this way:

                                                  ᵃₙX

  where X is the symbol of the atom

               a is the mass number of the atom

                n is the atomic number of the atom

 The mass number = number of protons + number of neutrons

        Atomic number = number of protons

Note; atomic number is the same as the number protons and the number of electrons in a neutral atom.

olchik [2.2K]

Answer:

Joanna's position would be -100.

Explanation:

Joanna's position would be 100 feets west to her house. Her position is negative because Joanna walked west of her house. The position would have been positive if she had moved east of his house, that is, to the school.

What happens to the pwc when the throttle is released?
Sergio [31]
PWC operators must keep in mind that a jet drive needs moving water through the drive nozzle for maneuverability. In other term, you must have power applied in order to uphold steering control. If the engine shuts off during operation or If you release the throttle to idle, you will lose all steering control. In either situation, the PWC will remain in the direction it was headed before the throttle was released or the engine was shut off. Action of the steering control will have no outcome. If you are approaching a dock, shore, or other vessel at a speed bigger than you can control and you release the throttle to idle or shut off the engine, you won’t have maneuvering capability and the PWC will stay its forward movement.

The gravity tractor, is a proposed spacecraft that will fly close to an asteroid whose trajectory threatens to impact the Earth.
Crazy boy [7]

Answer:

F_g=461lb_f

Explanation:

First calculate the mass of the asteroid. To do so, you need to find the volume and know the density of iron.

If r = d/2 = 645ft, then:

V = \frac{4}{3} \pi r^3

V = \frac{4}{3} \pi r^3\\V = 1.124\times10^{9}ft^3\delta_{iron}=m/V=491lb/ft^3m=V\times\delta=5.519\times10^{11}lb

In order to find force, use Newton's universal law of gravitation:

F_g=G\frac{m_1m_2}{d^2}

Where,

G= the gravitational constant:

G= 1.068846 \times10^{-9} ft^3 lb^{-1} s^{-2}

F_g=461lb_f
