Why is pure oxygen stored as a liquid under pressure

Physics

<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.

Box A is pulled 2 meters when a 3-newton force is applied to it.
Alex777 [14]

the answer would be C

work done = force * distance

wd = 3*2

wd = 6 J

wd = 2*3

wd = 6 J

so the work done is the same

If 2.0 x 10^-4 C charge passes a point in 5.0 x 10^-5 s, what is the rate of current flow?
vampirchik [111]
Current is defined as the rate of charge flowing a point every second. Having a current of 1 Ampere signifies 1 Coulomb is flowing in a circuit every second. It is measured by the use of an ammeter which is positioned in series to the component to be measured. The current in the problem is calculated as follows:

I = 2.0 x 10^-4 C / 5.0 x 10^-5 s
<span>I = 4 A</span>
