Andrews [41]3 years ago

The answer is yes!
Hydrogen gas is generated as part of the charging process of lead/acid cell batteries. If the hydrogen gas acculates in large concentrations in a building or room or a box, an electrical spark or other ignition source will cause the hydrogen to burn in a rapid reaction causing an possible explosion.
A good example of a hydrogen gas explosion and fire is the "Hindenburg" disaster of the old flying blimps or zepplins.

Why is 30% recommended as the minimum Michelson contrast?
forsale [732]

Answer:

Explained

Explanation:

Michelson contrast is used for patterns where the distribution of bright and dark segments is nearly equal.

It is given by:

m= \frac{I_{max}-I{min}}{I_{max}+I{min} }

where I_max = maximum illumination and I_min = minimum illumination

we know that

typically, I_min = 54% of I_max  (general standard)

or I_min = 0.54 I_max

putting this value in above equation to get m

this approximately corresponds to m = 0.3 or 30%

hence, 30% recommended as the minimum Michelson contrast

List 2 examples of objects demonstrating mechanical energy.
OlgaM077 [116]
Windmills run on the principle of mechanical energy and work. Moving air (wind) possesses some amount of energy in the form of kinetic energy (due to motion). This energy gives the air the ability to do work on the blades of the fan.
