This question is incomplete because the options are missing; here is the complete question

The ozone layer is found in which layer of the atmosphere?

A. Stratosphere

B. Mesosphere

C. Thermosphere

D. Troposphere

The correct answer is A. Stratosphere

Explanation:

The ozone layer as indicated by its name is mainly composed of Ozone (O2), this layer is essential for life because it filters ultraviolet radiation and acts as a greenhouse effect gas by trapping part of the heat from the sun. Additionally, the ozone layer is located in the stratosphere, which is the second layer of the atmosphere and can be found between 20 km to 50 km from Earth's surface. Moreover, the existence of the ozone layer in the stratosphere makes the temperature increase with height due to the radiation of the sun filter by ozone.

When you take your 1900-kg car out for a spin, you go around a corner of radius 55 m with a speed of 15 m/s. The coefficient of
pentagon [3]

Answer:

7772.72N

Explanation:

When u draw your FBD, you realize you have 3 forces (ignore the force the car produces), gravity, normal force and static friction. You also realize that gravity and normal force are in our out of the page  (drawn with a frame of reference above the car). So that leaves you with static friction in the centripetal direction.

Now which direction is the static friction, assume that it is pointing inward so

Fc=Fs=mv²/r=1900*15²/55=427500/55=7772.72N

Since the car is not skidding we do not have kinetic friction so there can only be static friction. One reason we do not use μFn is because that is the formula for maximum static friction, and the problem does not state there is maximum static friction.

a small table has a mass of 4kg, stands on four legs, each leg having an area of 0.001 m2. what is the pressure exerted by the t
Gemiola [76]

Answer:

P = 10 kPa

Explanation:

Given that,

The mass of a small table, m = 4 kg

The area of each leg = 0.001 m²

We need to find the pressure exerted by the table on the floor. Pressure is equal to the force per unit area. So

P=\dfrac{mg}{4\times A}\\\\P=\dfrac{4\times 10}{4\times 0.001}\\P=10000\ Pa\\\\or\\\\P=10\ kPa

So, the required pressure is 10 kPa.

Air is cooled in a process with constant pressure of 150 kPa. Before the process begins, air has a specific volume of 0.062 m^3/
Mama L [17]

Answer:

The pressure is constant, and it is P = 150kpa.

the specific volumes are:

initial = 0.062 m^3/kg

final = 0.027 m^3/kg.

Then, the specific work can be written as:

W = \int\limits^{vf}_{vi} {Pdv} \, = P(vf - vi) = 150kPa*(0.0027 - 0.062)m^3/kg = -5.25 kPa*m^3/kg.

The fact that the work is negative, means that we need to apply work to the air in order to compress it.

Now, to write it in more common units we have that:

1 kPa*m^3 = 1000J.

-5.25 kPa*m^3/kg = -5250 J/kg.
