What else can I help you with?
An element too dangerous to use in modern airships?
That'd be hydrogen.
Which element is also used in airships?
Hydrogen and helium are two elements that are kinda-sorta interchangeable in airships.
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.
Why airships today safer than in the past?
because hydrogen used to be in those airships and since hydrogen is flammable it was very dangerous
What element is used to fill airships and balloons?
Helium is typically used to fill airships and balloons due to its low density, which allows them to float in the air.
What element was once used to fill airships?
Hydrogen was the gas that was once used to filled airships. It is extremely plentiful and easy to produce. However, it is also extremely flammable and caused a few accidents. Helium is now used.
What is an example of a gas element?
An example of a gas element is helium, which is a noble gas commonly used in party balloons and airships.
What is a light element used for lifting airships?
Hydrogen (explosive), Helium (non-explosive).
What flammable gas used to be used in airships?
Hydrogen used to be used in airships.
Why is gas no longer used for airships?
gas is still used in airships to provide lift.
What is the noble lightweight element used by goodyear?
Goodyear is well known for its blimps. In order for these blimps to float, they contain a lighter than air gas. Hydrogen is to dangerous for this purpose, so helium is used. Thus, helium is the noble gas used by Goodyear.
What element has the chemical symbol He?
Helium has the chemical symbol He. It is a noble gas that is lighter than air and is commonly used in balloons and airships due to its low density.
