Is a battery that generates hydrogen,is that very explosive

Physics

Andrews [41]2 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.

URGENT PHYSICS QUESTION WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST
Morgarella [4.7K]

Answer:

7.2V

Explanation:

Find the equivalent resistance:

Req = 10 ohms + 15 ohms = 25 ohms

Use ohm's law to find the current:

V = IR

12V = I(25 ohms)

I = .48 amps

Multiple the current with the value of R2 to get the voltage drop:

.48amps x 15 ohms = 7.2V

With the aid of a string, a gyroscope is accelerated from rest to 32 rad/s in 0.40 s. What is its angular acceleration in rad/s2
Irina-Kira [14]
<h2>Angular acceleration is 80 rad/s² </h2><h2>Number of revolutions undergone is 1.02</h2>

Explanation:

We have equation of motion v = u + at

     Initial angular velocity, u = 0 rad/s

     Final angular velocity, v = 32 rad/s    

     Time, t = 0.40 s

     Substituting

                      v = u + at  

                      32 = 0 + a x 0.40

                      a = 80 rad/s²

     Angular acceleration is 80 rad/s²

  We have equation of motion s = ut + 0.5 at²

        Initial angular velocity, u = 0 rad/s

        Angular acceleration, a = 80 rad/s²

        Time, t = 0.4 s      

     Substituting

                      s = ut + 0.5 at²

                      s = 0 x 0.4 + 0.5 x 80 x 0.4²

                      s = 6.4 rad

      Angular displacement  = 6.4 rad

     \texttt{Number of revolutions = }\frac{6.4}{2\pi}=1.02

Number of revolutions undergone is 1.02

A cat chases a mouse across a 1.2 m high table. The mouse steps out of the way, and the cat slides off the table and strikes the
Drupady [299]
The cat has two directions of motions:
The horizontal motion = Dx = 2.2 m
The vertical motion = Dy = -1.3 m (negative sign indicates that the cat is falling)
a = 9.8 m/sec^2
Vy = zero (since you are not moving up)

From the laws of motion:
<span>Dy = Vyt + 0.5ayt^2 
</span>-1.3 = 0(t) + 0.5(-9.8)t^2
<span>t = 0.52s
</span>
Then, again using the laws of motion (but for the horizontal direction this time)
Dx = Vxt 
<span>2.2 = Vx0.52 </span>
<span>Vx = 2.2/0.52 </span>
<span>= 4.23 m/s 
</span>
<span>Therefore the cat's speed when it slid off the table is 4.23 m/s horizontally.</span>
