Practice question

**Ozone layer depletion** environmental concern related to increased UV-B reaching surface, causing skin cancer, cataracts, damage to crops and marine life, due to CFCs releasing Cl that catalytically destroys O₃, O₃ absorbs UV 200-320 nm, depletion increases UV transmission. UV rays have higher energy due to their shorter wavelengths (higher frequencies), which can damage living tissues by breaking molecular bonds, leading to effects like skin cancer. Using c = fλ, E₀/B₀ = c, I_d = ε₀ dΦ_E/dt, and spectrum classification λ = c/f, evaluation yields Their high energy, illustrating EM wave transverse nature and Maxwell's displacement current concept.
