Why sodium &pottasium are kept under kerosine

Physics
1 answer:
Afina-wow [57]4 years ago
5 0
As they are Alkali metals (group 1), they are extremely reactive in both air and water so must be stored in kerosine to stop them from reacting with the air or water.

When working with a powered instrument, the swirling effect produced by the water stream within the confined space of a periodon
Lina20 [59]

Answer:

Acoustic microstreaming

Explanation:

Acoustic microstreaming is the swirling effect produced by water stream confined in a spaced of a periodontal pocket.

  • It is the movement of water in a particular direction as a result of mechanical pressure within the fluid body.
  • They are often used in dental procedures to remove particulates from the teeth.
  • It mostly relies on the properties of sound waves to achieve this goal

A grandfather clock depends on the period of a pendulum to keep correct time.(ii) Suppose a grandfather clock is calibrated corr
ANEK [815]

The grandfather clock will now run slow (Option A).

<h3>What is Time Period of an oscillation?</h3>
  • The time period of an oscillation refers to the time taken by an object to complete one oscillation.
  • It is the inverse of frequency of oscillation; denoted by "T".

Now,

  • \sqrt{\frac{L}{g}}, where L is the length and g is the gravitational constant, is the formula for a pendulum's period.
  • The period will increase as one climbs a very tall mountain because g will slightly decrease.
  • Due to this and the previous issue, the clock runs slowly and it seems that one second is longer than it actually is.

Hence, the grandfather clock will now run slow (Option A).

A balloon filled with helium gas at 20°C occupies 4.91 L at 1.00 atm. The balloon is immersed in liquid nitrogen at -196°C, whil
mrs_skeptik [129]

Answer:

0.25 L

Explanation:

P_1 = Initial pressure = 1 atm

T_1 = Initial Temperature = 20 °C

V_1 = Initial volume = 4.91 L

P_2 = Final pressure = 5.2 atm

T_2 = Final Temperature = -196 °C

V_2= Final volume

From ideal gas law we have

\dfrac{P_1V_1}{T_1}=\dfrac{P_2V_2}{T_2}\\\Rightarrow V_2=\dfrac{P_1V_1T_2}{T_1P_2}\\\Rightarrow P_2=\dfrac{1\times 4.91(273.15-196)}{(20+273.15)\times 5.2}\\\Rightarrow V_2=0.24849\ L\approx 0.25\ L

The pressure experienced by the balloon is 0.25 L
