What happens to light that strikes a piece of glass

Physics
1 answer:
Leya [2.2K]3 years ago
6 0
If a ray of light hits the surface of a sheet of glass, some light will be reflected by the surface of the glass. However, much of the light will pass through the glass, because glass is transparent. ... This 'bending of a ray of light' when it passes from one substance into another substance is called refraction.

Explain the differences in structure and use for life between oxygen gas in the atmosphere and ozone.
navik [9.2K]

Answer:

Most of the oxygen in the atmosphere is in the form of O2, which means it is made up of molecules containing two oxygen atoms. Ozone, however is O3, which means it is made up of molecules containing three oxygen atoms. O2 is what we breath, and what plants release from photosynthesis. Ozone occurs naturally high in the stratosphere, where it absorbs ultraviolet light, protecting us here on the surface from skin cancer. Ozone can also occur closer to the surface of the earth as a pollutant. It is formed from reactions with O2 and chemicals emitted from factories and cars. It comes in the form of smog.

So in general:

Oxygen (O2): Essential to human life

Ozone (O3) in the stratosphere: essential to protecting life on earth

Ozone (O3) on the surface of the earth: toxic to human life, caused by pollution
