Answer: The correct answer is "It has increased surface levels of ultraviolet light".

Explanation:

Ozone depletion: The ozone layer in the atmosphere protects the earth's surface from the exposure of the harmful radiation but due to the hole in the ozone layer, the harmful radiation is reaching our earth's surface.

The ultraviolet radiation is very harmful radiation. It can cause skin cancer and eye cataract.

When the ozone layer is hit by the ultraviolet radiation then ozone will break into oxygen molecule and oxygen atom. Oxygen atom is unstable then it will react with another oxygen molecule. In this way, the ozone layer is not damaged.  

CFC (chloro fluoro carbon) is the pollutant which are responsible for the ozone depletion. Due to the depletion of the ozone layer, the surface levels of ultraviolet light has increased.

A) Increased the surface levels of ultraviolet light. Ozone, O3, gets hit by the ultraviolet radiation and splits into O2 + O, absorbing the energy of the radiation. O, being chemically unstable then reacts with another O2 to reform O3, and keep the ozone layer intact.

A double-slit experiment is set up using red light (λ = 706 nm). A first order bright fringe is seen at a given location on a sc
Elanso [62]

Answer:

λ = 470.66 nm

Explanation:

for bright fringey_m = \frac{m\lambda D}{d}

D= distance between slit and screen

d= distance between the slits

for first order bright fringe m = 1,

        y_1 = \frac{1\lambda D}{d}

         y_1 = {706*D}{d}

for dark fringe,we have

y_m = {(m + 1/2)\lambda D}{d}    

Now to get the dark fringes at the same location we should have;

(706)D/d = (m + 1/2)λD/d    

put m = 1

(1 + 1/2)λ = (706)

λ = 470.66 nm

What is the change all living things undergo as the grow
Vladimir [108]
All of the change that living things undergo as they grow is called development. That is the name when the changes are within a single unit and over a period of time as short as a lifetime. When the change occurs over thousands of years then it's called evolution.

Which of the following statements is/are true? Check all that apply. A. A potential energy function can be specified for a conse
Otrada [13]

Answer:

A. A potential energy function can be specified for a conservative force.

TRUE

because there is no loss of energy in conservative type of forces.

B. A nonconservative force permits a two-way conversion between kinetic and potential energies.

FALSE

It is not true because energy is not conserved in non-conservative forces.

C. The work done by a nonconservative force depends on the path taken.

TRUE

It depends on total path length while in conservative it only depends on initial and final state

D. A potential energy function can be specified for a nonconservative force.

FALSE

Since energy is not stored in non-conservative forces so it is not defined for non conservative forces

E. A conservative force permits a two-way conversion between kinetic and potential energies.

TRUE

Work done against conservative forces is stored in form of potential energy so it is possible to have two way conversion.

F. The work done by a conservative force depends on the path taken.

FALSE

Conservative force work depends only on initial and final state
