Explain the differences in structure and use for life between oxygen gas in the atmosphere and ozone.

Physics
1 answer:
navik [9.2K]3 years ago
5 0

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

A spring with force constant of 59 N/m is compressed by 1.3 cm in a hockey game machine. The compressed spring is used to accele
Furkat [3]

Answer:

The puck moves a vertical height of 2.6 cm before stopping

Explanation:

As the puck is accelerated by the spring, the kinetic energy of the puck equals the elastic potential energy of the spring.

So, 1/2mv² = 1/2kx² where m = mass of puck = 39.2 g = 0.0392 g, v = velocity of puck, k = spring constant = 59 N/m and x = compression of spring = 1.3 cm = 0.013 cm.

Now, since the puck has an initial velocity, v before it slides up the inclined surface, its loss in kinetic energy equals its gain in potential energy before it stops. So

1/2mv² = mgh where h = vertical height puck moves and g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s².

Substituting the kinetic energy of the puck for the potential energy of the spring, we have

1/2kx² = mgh

h = kx²/2mg

= 59 N/m × (0.013 m)²/(0.0392 kg × 9.8 m/s²)

= 0.009971 Nm/0.38416 N

= 0.0259 m

= 2.59 cm

≅ 2.6 cm

So the puck moves a vertical height of 2.6 cm before stopping

How can you drop two eggs the fewest amount of times, without them breaking?
MrMuchimi

Answer:

Both eggs are identical. The aim is to find out the highest floor from which an egg will not break when dropped out of a window from that floor. If an egg is dropped and does not break, it is undamaged and can be dropped again. However, once an egg is broken, that's it for that egg.

Calculate the heat, in kilocalories, that is absorbed if 183 g of ice at 0.0 ∘C is placed in an ice bag, melts, and warms to bod
boyakko [2]

Answer:

The total amount of heat needed will be Q_T=21.411kcal.

Explanation:

We will divide the calculation in two: First, the heat needed to melt the ice, and then the heat needed to warm the resulting liquid from 0°C to 37°C.

m=183g

l_f=80\frac{cal}{g} =334\frac{J}{g}

l_w=1\frac{cal}{g} =4.184\frac{J}{g}

<em>i) </em>The fusion heat will be:

Q_f=l_fm=14640cal=14.640kcal

<em>ii)</em> The heat needed to warm the water from T_i=0^{\circ}C to T_i=37^{\circ}C will be:

Q_w=l_wm(T_f-T_i)=6771cal=6.771kcal

So, the total amount needed will be the sum of these two results:

Q_T=Q_f+Q_w=14.640kcal+6.771kcal=21.411kcal.
