Why are electromagnetic waves used instead of sound waves?

Chemistry
1 answer:
alekssr [168]3 years ago
5 0

Answer: Electromagnetic waves are not like sound waves because they do not need molecules to travel. This means that electromagnetic waves can travel through air, solid objects and even space. This is how astronauts on spacewalks use radios to communicate. Radio waves are a type of electromagnetic wave.

Air bags are activated when a severe impact causes a steel ball to compress a spring and electrically ignite a detonator cap. Th
Zarrin [17]

Answer: 136 g of  NaN_3 must be reacted to inflate an air bag to 70.6 L at STP.

Explanation:

Using ideal gas equation:

PV=nRT

P= pressure of nitrogen gas = 1 atm (at STP)

V =volume of nitrogen gas = 70.6 L

n = number of moles of nitrogen gas = 1 atm (at STP)

R = gas constant = 0.0821 Latm/Kmol

T = temperature of nitrogen gas = 273 K (at STP)

1atm\times 70.6L=n\times 0.0821 L atm/K mol\times 273

n=3.14

For the balanced chemical reaction:

2NaN_3(s)\rightarrow 2Na(s)+3N_2(g)

3 moles of nitrogen are produced by = 2 moles of NaN_3

3.14 moles of nitrogen are produced by =\frac{2}{3}\times 3.14=2.09 moles of NaN_3

Mass of NaN_3 = Moles × Molar mass = 2.09 mole × 65 g/mol = 136 g

Use Boyle's Law to explain what would happen to the volume of a helium- filled balloon if it was carried underwater by a diver t
oksano4ka [1.4K]

The deeper the diver takes the helium balloon, the more it reduces in size. This is due to the pressure of the water column above pressing on the balloon. According to Boyle’s law (P= k*1/V.), as the volume of the balloon decreases, the pressure of the helium inside increases.
