Expert Solution & Answer
Check Mark
To determine

The difference between the oxygen we breathe and the ozone located in the earth's stratosphere.

Explanation of Solution

The difference between the oxygen we breathe and the ozone located in the earth's stratosphere is following.

Oxygen we breatheOzone located in the earth's stratosphere
1. Oxygen used for breathe by living thing is made by two atoms of the oxygen.1. Ozone present in the earth's stratosphere is made by three atoms of oxygen.
2. The chemical formula of Oxygen used for breathe by living thing is O22. The chemical formula of Ozone present in the earth's stratosphere is O3
3. This is ordinary oxygen and mainly present in the atmosphere troposphere layer.3. This is a special form of oxygen and mainly present in the atmosphere stratosphere layer.
4. Oxygen used for breathe by living thing is a transparent gas.4. Ozone present in the earth's stratosphere is a bluish colored gas.
5. This is not a harmful gas.5. Ozone is a harmful gas.
6. Responsible for the life of living things in the earth.6. Responsible for the diffraction of ultra-violet lay comes from the sun.

A 2-kW resistance heater wire with thermal conductivity of k=20 W/mK, a diameter of D=4mm, and a length of L=0.9m is used to boil water. If the outer surface temp of the resistance wire is Ts=110 degrees C, determine the temp at the center of the wire.
A flat-plate solar collector is used to heat water by having water flow through tubes attached at the back of the thin solar absorber plate. The absorber plate has emmisssivity and an absorptivity of 0.9. The top surface where x=0 temp of the absorber is T0=35 degrees C, and solar radiation is incident on the basorber at 500 W/m^2 with a surrounding temp of 0 degrees C. The convection heat transfer coefficient at the absorber surface is 5 W/m^2 K, while the ambient temp is 25 degrees C. Show that the variation of the temp in the basorber plate can be expressed as T(x)=-(q0/k)x+T0, and determine net heat flux, q, absorbed by solar collector.
