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

Physics
1 answer:
navik [9.2K]2 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

If a bust starts to move and its velocity becomes 90 km after 8 seconds . calculate its acceleration answer it quick please
kherson [118]

Answer:

a = 3.125 [m/s^2]

Explanation:

In order to solve this problem, we must use the following equation of kinematics. But first, we have to convert the speed of 90 [km/h] to meters per second.

90\frac{km}{h}*\frac{1000m}{1km}*\frac{1h}{3600s}   \\= 25 \frac{m}{s}

v_{f} =v_{i} + (a*t)

where:

Vf = final velocity = 25 [m/s]

Vi = initial velocity = 0

a = acceleration [m/s^2]

t  = time = 8 [s]

The initial speed is zero as the bus starts to koverse from rest. The positive sign of the equation means that the bus increases its speed.

25 = 0 + a*8

a = 3.125 [m/s^2]

if somebody swim to the right for 30 meters then swims to left for 15 meters and then swims back to the right for 50 meters what
zubka84 [21]

50m

Explanation:

Displacement is the length of path traveled which is measured from start to the finishing of the path.

    Analysis of the journey;

 Starts from:

 0                                    30m                                              from right

                  15m                                                                       to left

                                                                       50m              to right

                 

The displacement is 50m from the starting point.

Distance is total path traveled and for this problem it is 30+ 15 + 50 = 95m

  • An AC generator is a device that converts mechanical energy into electrical energy using the principle of electromagnetic induction.
  • <em><u>Slip rings are two hollow rings to which two ends of the armature coil are connected. These rings rotate with the rotation of the coil. They function to  to allow for electrical contact with the brushes.</u></em>
  • Slip rings therefore, provide a means for connecting the rotating armature to an external circuit.
