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

1 answer:

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.

In which situation would an object weigh the LEAST? (assume all the objects have the same mass)

inessss [21]

Answer:

An object on the moon would weigh the LEAST among these. So correct answer is B.

Explanation:

Weight of an object on any place is given by:

W = Mass * Acceleration due to gravity(g)

It means when masses of different objects those are in different places are same, the weight of those objects depends upon the 'g' of that particular place.

As we know, acceleration due to gravity on surface of moon (g') is 6 times weaker than the acceleration on surface of earth (g), which is due to the large M/R^2 of the earth than the moon.

i.e. g' = g/6 so W' = W/6

And in the space between the two, the object is weightless.

A tank contains 350 liters of fluid in which 10 grams of salt is dissolved. Brine containing 1 gram of salt per liter is then pu

aleksandr82 [10.1K]

Answer:

$A(t) = -340e^{-t/70} + 350$

Explanation:

Since fluid is pumping in and out at the same rate (5L/min), the total fluid volume in the tank stays constant at 350L. Only the amount of salt and its concentration changed overtime.

Let A(t) be the amount of salt (g) at time t and C(t) (g/L) be the concentration at time t

A(0) = 10 g

Brine with concentration of 1g/L is pouring in at the rate of 5L/min so the salt income rate is 5 g/min

The well-mixed solution is pouring out at the rate of 5L/min at concentration C(t) so the salt outcome rate is 5C g/min

But the concentration is total amount of salt over 350L constant volume

C = A / 350

Therefore our rate of change for salt A' is

A' = 5 - 5A/350 = 5 - A/70

This is a first-order linear ordinary differential equation and it has the form of y' = a + by. The solution of this is

$y = ce^{bt} + \frac{a}{b}$

So $A = ce^{\frac{-t}{70}} + \frac{5}{1/70} = ce^{-t/70} + 350$

with A(0) = 10

c + 350 = 10

c = 10 - 350 = -340

$A(t) = -340e^{-t/70} + 350$
