How the supersonic jet aeroplanes are responsible for the depletion of ozone layer ?

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Introduction to Supersonic Jets**: Supersonic jets are aircraft that travel faster than the speed of sound. These jets operate at high altitudes where the atmosphere is thinner, and they have significant environmental impacts, particularly on the ozone layer. 2. **Emission of Nitric Oxide (NO)**: When supersonic jets fly, they burn fuel at high temperatures, which leads to the formation of various pollutants, including nitric oxide (NO). This gas is released directly into the stratosphere, where the ozone layer is located. ...
