Most ozone resides in the stratosphere (a layer of the atmosphere between 10 and 40 km above us), where it acts as a shield to protect Earth's surface from the sun's harmful ultraviolet radiation. With a weakening of this shield, we would be more susceptible to skin cancer, cataracts and impaired immune systems.

bija089 [108]

It has to be D because the arrow will drop as it moves, if it were a gun, you'd lead the target so fire below it, but due to it being an arrow, you aim high not low. Also, they didnt specify how fast anything is, so you'd probably miss if you actually did it.

Vanyuwa [196]

Rosalind Franklin, James Watson, and Francis Crick’s discovered the DNA's Double Helix.

<h3>What is DNA?</h3>

DNA is an abbreviation for deoxyribonucleic acid and it can be defined as the molecules that are found within cells, and they are saddled with the responsibility of storing genetic information in living organisms.

In 1953, James Watson and Francis Crick's used other scientists' work to create a model of DNA in that they used Rosalind Franklin's photo to help them determine that deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) was a double helix.

Furthermore, the discovery of DNA's Double Helix by Rosalind Franklin, James Watson, and Francis Crick led to modern molecular biology, which has helped many scientists and researcher to understand how genes control the chemical processes in the body of a living organism.

A green truck is moving to the right. A red truck is moving to the left with a speed of 6 m/s. The mass of the red truck is 1,00
Contact [7]

Answer:

2 m/s

Explanation:

m_1 = Mass of red truck = 1000 kg

m_2 = Mass of green truck= 3000 kg

u_1 = Initial Velocity of red truck = 6 m/s

u_2 = Initial Velocity of green truck

v = Velocity with which they move together = 0

For elastic collision

m_1u_1 + m_2u_2 =(m_1 + m_2)v\\\Rightarrow m_1u_1 + m_2u_2 =0\\\Rightarrow m_1u_1 + m_2u_2 =(m_1 + m_2)v\\\Rightarrow m_1u_1 + m_2u_2 =0\\\Rightarrow u_2=-\frac{m_1u_1}{m_2}\\\Rightarrow u_2=-\frac{1000\times 6}{3000}\\\Rightarrow u_2=-2\ m/s

Velocity of the green truck is 2 m/s
