Because of the build up of pressure. There is so much steam coming from such a compressed point, it’s coming out in force.
Now think of that same spot being closed, it only has one place to go but it can’t leave, so that pressure will build and build and then BOOM, it explodes.
In short, the answer is the pressure being released from a small point, and how that energy is released.
Mechanical energy equals the sum of potential and kinetic energy. During the process, all PE converts into KE, assuming air resistance is neglected. So, the mechanical energy does not change and is equal to the initial potential energy.

A chemical property of gasoline is that it will burn in air. Gasoline is a substance that is used to power automobiles. Gasoline will oxidize
in air which means that it reacts with oxygen in air. Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day.
The absolute refractive index is equal to the speed of light of the wave in air divided by the speed of light in the second medium. This means that it is equal to 3 x10^8 / 1.71 x10^8. This means the answer is 1.75
Answer:
The radiation pressure of the light is 3.33 x 10⁻⁶ Pa.
Explanation:
Given;
intensity of light, I = 1 kW/m²
The radiation pressure of light is given as;

I kW = 1000 J/s
The energy flux density = 1000 J/m².s
The speed of light = 3 x 10⁸ m/s
Thus, the radiation pressure of the light is calculated as;

Therefore, the radiation pressure of the light is 3.33 x 10⁻⁶ Pa.
