Explain how ozone is both beneficial and detrimental to human health.

1 answer:

8 0

The ozone layer is beneficial because it protects us from the ultraviolet (UV) rays from the sun. Without it, survival would be difficult. It is harmful by containing all the pollution and chemicals . That damages our lungs and causes chest pain, coughing,etc.

A video game includes an asteroid that is programmed to move in a straight line across a 17-inch monitor according to the equati

Ainat [17]

Answer:

The asteroid's acceleration at this point is $2.71\ m/s^2$

Explanation:

The equation that governs the trajectory of asteroid is given by :

$x=6.5t-2.3t^3$

The velocity of asteroid is given by :

$v=\dfrac{dx}{dt}\\\\v=\dfrac{d(6.5t-2.3t^3)}{dt}\\\\v=6.5-6.9t^2$

At some point during the trip across the screen, the asteroid is at rest. It means, v = 0

So,

$6.5-6.9t^2=0\\\\t=0.971\ s$

Acceleration,

$a=\dfrac{dv}{dt}\\\\a=\dfrac{d(6.5-6.9t^2)}{dt}\\\\a=-13.8t$

Put t = 0.971 s

$a=-13.8\times 0.197\\\\a=-2.71\ m/s^2$

So, the asteroid's acceleration at this point is $2.71\ m/s^2$ and it is decelerating.

Two charged particles are a distance of 1.62 m from each other. One of the particles has a charge of 7.10 nc, and the other has

k0ka [10]

Answer:

A. F=107.6nN

B. Repulsive

Explanation:

According to coulombs law, the force between two charges is express as

F=(Kq1q2) /r^2

If the charges are of similar charge the force will be repulsive and if they are dislike charges, force will be attractive.

Note the constant K has a value 9*10^9

Hence for a charge q1=7.10nC=7.10*10^-9, q2=4.42*10^-9 and the distance r=1.62m

If we substitute values we have

F=[(9×10^9) ×(7.10×10^-9) ×(4.42×10^-9)] /(1.62^2)

F=(282.4×10^-9)/2.6244

F=107.6×10^-9N

F=107.6nN

B. Since the charges are both positive, the force is repulsive

What is the student's kinetic energy at the bottom of the hill if he is moving

soldi70 [24.7K]

Answer:

KE = 10530 J or 10.53 KJ

Explanation:

The formula for kinetic energy is KE = 1/2 mv^2

Let's apply the formula:

KE = 1/2 mv^2

KE = 1/2 (65kg) (18m/s)^2

KE = 10530 J or 10.53 KJ

A car traveling 34 mi/h accelerates uniformly for 4 s, covering 615 ft in this time. What was its acceleration? Round your answe

Contact [7]

Answer:

51.94 ft/s²

257.63 ft/s

Explanation:

t = Time taken = 4 s

u = Initial velocity = 34 mi/h

v = Final velocity

s = Displacement = 615 ft

a = Acceleration

Converting velocity to ft/s

$34\ mi/h=\frac{34\times 5280}{3600}=49.87\ ft/s$

Equation of motion

$s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2\\\Rightarrow a=2\frac{s-ut}{t^2}\\\Rightarrow a=2\left(\frac{615-49.87\times 4}{4^2}\right)\\\Rightarrow a=51.94\ ft/s^2$

Acceleration is 51.94 ft/s²

$v=u+at\\\Rightarrow v=49.87+51.94\times 4\\\Rightarrow v=257.63\ ft/s$

Final velocity at this time is 257.63 ft/s

A car is traveling at 75 m/s. 50 seconds later it is traveling at 25 m/s. What is the car’s acceleration?

scoray [572]

Answer:

a = -1 m/s^2

Explanation:

Vi = 75 m/s

Vf = 25 m/s

t = 50 s

Plug those values into the following equation:

Vf = Vi + at

25 = 75 + 50a

---> a = -1 m/s^2
