The ozone layer is an important component of Earth’s atmosphere because it helps to block UV radiation from reaching Earth. The

ozone layer absorbs most of the harmful UV radiation from the Sun and stores it as heat within the stratosphere. If the ozone layer were completely removed, what effect would that change have on temperature?
The temperature would remain unchanged.
The temperature of Earth would increase.
The temperature of the upper atmospheric layers would decrease.
The temperature of Earth would decrease.
The temperature of the stratosphere would decrease.

Sheila weighs 60 kg and is riding a bike. Her momentum on the bike is 340 kg • m/s. The bike hits a rock, which stops it complet
Vikki [24]

Answer:

v₂ = 5.7 m/s

Explanation:

We will apply the law of conservation of momentum here:

Total\ Initial\ Momentum = m_{1}v_{1} + m_{2}v_{2}\\

where,

Total Initial Momentum = 340 kg.m/s

m₁ = mass of bike

v₁ = final speed of bike = 0 m/s

m₂ = mass of Sheila = 60 kg

v₂ = final speed of Sheila = ?

Therefore,

340\ kg.m/s = m_{1}(0\ m/s) + (60\ kg)v_{2}\\v_{2} = \frac{340\ kg.m/s}{60\ kg}\\\\

<u>v₂ = 5.7 m/s </u>
