Answer: B. meteorites, UV rays
The earth's atmosphere plays an important role in shielding the space rocks and meteorites enters inside the earth due to collision with the celestial body. Due to high heat and pressure in the mesospheric layer of the atmosphere these meteorites burned up before reaching the biosphere or hydrosphere system of the earth. The UV rays are protected from entering into the earth atmosphere by the ozone layer present in the stratosphere of the atmosphere. Both meteorites and UV rays can negatively effect the human population. Therefore, the atmosphere is an agent which provides protection against them.
Answer: 996m/s
Explanation:
Formula for calculating velocity of wave in a stretched string is
V = √T/M where;
V is the velocity of wave
T is tension
M is the mass per unit length of the wire(m/L)
Since the second wire is twice as far apart as the first, it will be L2 = 2L1
Let V1 and V2 be the speed of the shorter and longer wire respectively
V1 = √T/M1... 1
V2 = √T/M2... 2
Since V1 = 249m/s, M1 = m/L1 M2 = m/L2 = m/2L1
The equations will now become
249 = √T/(m/L1) ... 3
V2 = √T/(m/2L1)... 4
From 3,
249² = TL1/m...5
From 4,
V2²= 2TL1/m... 6
Dividing equation 5 by 6 we have;
249²/V2² = TL1/m×m/2TL1
{249/V2}² = 1/2
249/V2 = (1/2)²
249/V2 = 1/4
V2 = 249×4
V2 = 996m/s
Therefore the speed of the wave on the longer wire is 996m/s

Explanation:
Does this help?
Answer
Pressure, P = 1 atm
air density, ρ = 1.3 kg/m³
a) height of the atmosphere when the density is constant
Pressure at sea level = 1 atm = 101300 Pa
we know
P = ρ g h


h = 7951.33 m
height of the atmosphere will be equal to 7951.33 m
b) when air density decreased linearly to zero.
at x = 0 air density = 0
at x= h ρ_l = ρ_sl
assuming density is zero at x - distance

now, Pressure at depth x


integrating both side


now,


h = 15902.67 m
height of the atmosphere is equal to 15902.67 m.
The answer is most likely D. hope that helped
