Answer:

The Ozone is produced naturally when solar radiation collide with oxygen molecules $O_{2}$ .

The solar radiation is high energy, as a result of the collision, oxygen molecules are separated in atoms, this process is known as Photolysis.

After the separation process, oxygen atoms are freed and continuously colliding one another, so here they form $O_{3}$ molecules.

The major part of the Ozone in the atmosphere is formed over the equatorial zone, because there is the most intense solar energy radiation.

When energetic UV rays dissociates molecules of oxygen into seperate atoms. But when they collide into each other it forms OZONE.

If 5 mm of rain falls in a 100 m2 field, what volume of rain, in m3, fell in the field?

Nina [5.8K]

The volume of rain that fells in the field is simply given by the area of the field, which is

$A=100 mm^2$

multiplied by the height of rain that fell, which is

$h=5.0 mm$

Therefore, the volume is

$V=hA=(5 mm)(100 mm^2)=500 mm^3$

A bag of sugar weighs 5.00 lb on Earth. What would it weigh in newtons on the Moon, where the free-fall acceleration is one-sixt

gizmo_the_mogwai [7]

Answer:

Earth: 22.246 N

Moon: 3.71 N

Jupiter: 58.72 N

Explanation:

The mass of an object will remain constant in any location, its weight however, can fluctuate depending on its location. For example, a golf ball will weigh less on the moon, but its mass will not be different if it was on earth.

To calculate anything, we need to convert to standard measurements.

5.00 lbs = 2.27 kg

On earth, gravity is measured to be 9.8 m/s², so the weight in Newtons on Earth would be: (2.27 kg) x (9.8 m/s²) = 22.246 N

Repeated on the moon where gravity is (9.8 m/s²) x (1/6) = 1.633 m/s², so the weight in Newtons on the moon would be: (2.27 kg) x (1.633 m/s²) = 3.71 N

Repeated on Jupiter where gravity is (9.8 m/s²) x (2.64) = 25.87 m/s², so the wight in Newtons on Jupiter would be: (2.27 kg) x (25.87 m/s²) = 58.72 N
