A large fraction of the ultraviolet (UV) radiation coming from the sun is absorbed by the atmosphere. The main UV absorber in ou

r atmosphere is ozone, O3O3. In particular, ozone absorbs radiation with frequencies around 9.38×1014 HzHz . What is the wavelength λλlambda of the radiation absorbed by ozone? Express your answer in nanometers.

Answer:

0.03052 nm

Explanation:

From c = f¥

Where c = speed of electromagnetic wave in vacuum = 3x10^8 m/s

f = frequency of the wave

¥ = wavelenght of the wave.

¥ = c/f = (3x10^8)/(9.38×10^14)

= 3.052x10^-7 m

= 0.03052 nm

Answer:

λ = 3.2 x 10⁻⁷ m = 320 nm

Explanation:

The relationship between the velocity of electromagnetic waves (UV rays) and the their frequency is:

v = fλ

where,

v = c = speed of the electromagnetic waves (UV rays) = speed of light

c = 3 x 10⁸ m/s

f = frequency of the electromagnetic waves (UV rays) = 9.38 x 10¹⁴ Hz

λ = wavelength of the electromagnetic waves (UV rays) = ?

Therefore, substituting the values in the relation, we get:

3 x 10⁸ m/s = (9.38 x 10¹⁴ Hz)(λ)

λ = (3 x 10⁸ m/s)/(9.38 x 10¹⁴ Hz)

<u>λ = 3.2 x 10⁻⁷ m = 320 nm</u>

So, the radiation of <u>320 nm</u> wavelength is absorbed by Ozone.

A sled is pushed to right with a force of 200 N. The force of friction opposing that motion is 50 N. a) What is the Net Force on
marin [14]

Answer:

Fr = 150 [N]

a = 5 [m/s²]

Explanation:

In order to find the resulting force, we must assume that the thrust force is positive to the right, while the friction force is negative to the left.

F_{r}=200-50\\F_{r}=150[N]

Now Newton's Second Law tells us that the sum of the forces or the resulting force is equal to the product of mass by acceleration.

F = m*a

150 = 30*a\\a=150/30\\a = 5 [m/s^{2} ]

Which restricted basin has the coolest temperatures?
sattari [20]

Hudson Bay is the  restricted basin that has the coolest temperatures

Hudson Bay is a restricted basin which  remains frozen or is dominated by ice over the summer solstice and through- out much of the high-sun season. This basin experiences a harsh continental climate.

The average annual temperature in almost the entire bay is around 0 °C (32 °F) or below. In the extreme northeast, winter temperatures average as low as −29 °C or −20.2 °F. The region of this basin has very low year-round average temperatures.

This basin starts freezing up by early November, and the northern part of the basin is typically entirely iced over by the end of the month.

correct answer is Hudson bay
