Excimer laser radiation from KrF 248 nanometer (nm) broad beam can produce ozone from air.(76) Discuss whether the lofting of low-level satellites containing excimer lasers could be used to restore the ozone layer.
 
  What will be an ideal response?

Answer to Question 1

This would be possible, but extremely expensive to accomplish. Each satellite
launch would be expensive in itself, and because the satellite would be in low Earth orbit, air
resistance (though not large) would cause the orbit to decay. Either there would have to be
provision for continuous orbit correction (the satellites would need to carry extra fuel to
correct the orbit) or the satellites would fall to Earth after a short time and have to be
replaced. Neither option seems very cost effective.
Then there is the problem of supplying power to the laser. Perhaps solar energy could be
used, but then the question of the amount of energy needed. It will be perhaps obvious that
to get sufficient ozone formation would require substantial power expenditure, and require a
very large area of solar panels. The greater the weight lofted by a rocket, the more expensive
the launch in fuel.
This overall, while possible technically, seems unlikely to solve the problem at reasonable
cost.
While I would not expect this detailed an answer from a student, I would expect students to
recognize that this technical fix would require costly tradeoffs and that it is therefore
probably not feasible.

Answer to Question 2

Any individual student could be speaking; in this case, the classroom is not quiet.
There are twenty different ways this can happen. Two students could be speaking to one
another. There are many more ways to do this20 x 19/2 = 190, in fact (a single student
could be speaking to any of the 19 others, but we can only count any pair once). Three
different students could be speaking, and there are many more ways of doing that than two
students speaking18 more ways, in fact, except that not you're counting each triad three
times20 x 19/2 x 18/3.

Approximately 15–25% of recognized pregnancies end in miscarriage. However, many miscarriages often occur before a woman even knows she is pregnant.

Did you know?

As the western states of America were settled, pioneers often had to drink rancid water from ponds and other sources. This often resulted in chronic diarrhea, causing many cases of dehydration and death that could have been avoided if clean water had been available.

Did you know?

As many as 28% of hospitalized patients requiring mechanical ventilators to help them breathe (for more than 48 hours) will develop ventilator-associated pneumonia. Current therapy involves intravenous antibiotics, but new antibiotics that can be inhaled (and more directly treat the infection) are being developed.

Serum cholesterol testing in adults is recommended every 1 to 5 years. People with diabetes and a family history of high cholesterol should be tested even more frequently.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) was originally known as the Communicable Disease Center, which was formed to fight malaria. It was originally headquartered in Atlanta, Georgia, since the Southern states faced the worst threat from malaria.
