Question
What protects the Earth from excessive ultraviolet radiation?
Explanation
**Ozone absorbs UV** protecting life, depletion by CFCs, halons produces Cl· + O₃ → ClO + O₂, ClO + O → Cl· + O₂, catalytic cycle, one Cl destroys thousands of O₃, Montreal Protocol bans CFCs, UV increase harmful. The document mentions that the ozone layer absorbs most ultraviolet radiation from the sun at an altitude of 40-50 km . Using c = fλ, E₀/B₀ = c, I_d = ε₀ dΦ_E/dt, and spectrum classification λ = c/f, evaluation yields Ozone layer, illustrating EM wave transverse nature and Maxwell's displacement current concept.
