What effects did the Hindenburg disaster have?
The Hindenburg disaster ended rigid airship aviation for commercial purposes, and since then no zeppelin has ever been used to transport passengers or cargo.
How did hydrogen make the Hindenburg rise?
The Hindenburg was a giant balloon airship filled with hydrogen gas for buoyancy.Hydrogen is the lightest of all gasses and has a mass of only half the mass of helium gas, so it worked well to lift the mass of the airship. The Hindenburg disaster took place on Thursday, May 6, 1937, and part of the disaster was due to the hydrogen gas catching fire. Helium would not catch fire since it is an inert gas.
What gas do you use in airships today?
In their early history, buoyant airships (zepellins, blimps) were filled with hydrogen, a highly flammable gas. Since the Hindenburg disaster, hydrogen has been supplanted by helium, a much more expensive material, but one that is inert and hence much safer.
Can road accidents be a disaster?
No since car accidents can be controlled by people not like any disaster that do not have control of.
Is the combustion of aluminum powder exothermic or endothermic?
i am pretty sure that it is endothermic because heat it not produced... but I'm not a 100 percent sure so don't quote me on that! k thanx bye! --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------NEW USER You are obviously not very sure upon what endothermic and exothermic means. Obviously, heat was produced in LARGE QUANTITIES in the Hindenburg since COMBUSTION produces heat. So, of course it is exothermic.
How long has it bin since the challenger disaster?
laden long
Was the black death a natural disaster?
If you were on a planet that was falling in to a black hole, it would certainly be considered a disaster. Since black holes are a natural phenomenon, then the disaster is probably natural too.
What did hydrogen used to be used for?
The only answer that comes to mind is "Airships". Hydrogen, the lightest element, was used in airships, where excess weight was undesirable. However, accidents like the Hindenburg disaster showed that Hydrogen gas was too dangerous(it is extremely flammable) to be used. Since then, Helium has been used instead. Helium is also a very light element, and is completely safe, as it is inert.
