Why is pure oxygen stored as a liquid under pressure

Physics
1 answer:
yKpoI14uk [10]3 years ago
3 0
<h2>Answer: It is highly flammable.</h2>

Explanation:

Liquid oxygen is created from oxygen atoms that have been forced to assume the liquid state due to <u>compression (change of pressure) and temperature modification. </u>

Specifically this is achieved by cooling the oxygen enough to change it to its liquid state. So,<u> as the temperature drops, the atoms move more slowly because they have less energy. </u>

In this sense, in the liquid state it is easier to store and mobilize oxygen, taking into account that it is a highly flammable gas.

Linearly polarized light whose Jones vector is [0 1] (horizontally polarized) is sent through a train of two linear polarizers.
ivann1987 [24]

Answer:

Following are the solution to the given question:

Explanation:

The input linear polarisation was shown at an angle of 2 \mu. It's a very popular use of a half-wave plate. In particular, consider the case \mu = 45 \pm, at which the angle of rotation is 90\pm. HWP thereby provides a great way to turn, for instance, a linear polarised light that swings horizontally to polarise vertically. Illustration of action on event circularly polarized light of the half-wave platform. Customarily it is the slow axis of HWP that corresponds to either the rotation. Note that perhaps the vector of polarization is "double-headed," i.e., the electromagnetic current swinging back and forward in time. Therefore the turning angle could be referred to as the rapid axis to reach the same result. Please find the attached file.

Which wavelength produces fluorescence? Why do you think this wavelength produces fluorescence while the other does not?
Maurinko [17]

Answer:

Long wavelength

Explanation:

Wavelengths that corresponds to the bands of blue and red are strongly absorbed whereas the wavelengths that lie in the mid-range corresponds to green light that are absorbed weakly.

Fluorescence produced is always directed towards longer wavelengths of the spectra as compared to the corresponding spectra for absorption.

Suppose an object in freefall is dropped from a building it’s starting velocity is 0m/s. Ignoring the facts of air resistance wh
Alja [10]

v = v₀ + at

v = final speed, v₀ = initial speed, a = acceleration, t = elapsed time

Given values:

v₀ = 0m/s (starts from rest), a = 9.81m/s², t = 3s

Plug in and solve for v:

v = 0 + 9.81(3)

v = 29.4m/s

An amateur player is about to throw a dart with an initial velocity of 15 meters/second onto a dartboard that is at a distance o
Minchanka [31]

Answer:

B. 0.16 m

Explanation:

The vertical distance by which the player will miss the target is equal to the vertical distance covered by the dart during its motion.

Since the dart is thrown horizontally, the initial vertical velocity is zero:

v_y = 0

While the horizontal velocity is

v_x = 15 m/s

The horizontal distance covered is

d_x = 2.7 m

Since the dart moves by uniform motion along the horizontal direction, the time it takes for covering this distance is

t=\frac{d_x}{v_x}=\frac{2.7 m}{15 m/s}=0.18 s

along the vertical direction, the motion is a uniformly accelerated motion with constant downward acceleration g=9.8 m/s^2, so the vertical distance covered is given by

d_y = \frac{1}{2}gt^2=\frac{1}{2}(9.8 m/s^)(0.18 s)^2=0.16 m

Object a travels in the +x-direction before hitting a stationary object
Leto [7]
The object’s resultant angle of motion with the +x-axis after the collision is 47°

<span>From object A:
 
1) x-momentum is 5.7 × 10^4 kilogram meters/second,
2) y-momentum is 6.2 × 10^4 kilogram meters/second.
 
Now, we know, tan</span>Ф = \frac{y}{x}

⇒tanФ = \frac{6.2 × 10^4 }{5.7 × 10^4}

⇒tanФ = 1.088

⇒ Ф = tan^{-1} 1.088 
         =  47.4 ≈ 47
