What else can I help you with?
Would your body explode in space why or why not?
Yes. your body would explode in space if you went unprotected. in-fact you will explode before you can suffocate. this because in space there is a Vacume that sucks up all the air.
What will a helium filled balloon do in space?
In space, a helium-filled balloon will expand further due to the lack of air pressure outside the balloon. Eventually, the balloon will burst because the pressure from the helium inside will exceed the pressure outside.
Can a lighter explode in outer space?
Yes, a lighter can explode in outer space. This is because the flammable material inside the lighter can combust if it comes into contact with a source of ignition, such as a spark or flame, even in the absence of oxygen.
Can water vapor explode?
If stored under pressure and then quickly released it can burst out as steam.
Why do you have to wear a spacesuit on Saturn?
Because in space it is all made of carbon dioxide and no oxygen so people are not able to breath in space. The space suit allows you to breath in oxygen because there is an oxygen tank built inside.
Do you implode in space due to the lack of pressure?
No, you do not implode in space due to the lack of pressure. Your body is able to withstand the lack of pressure in space because the pressure inside your body is equal to the pressure outside.
What if you took a jar in outer space then filled it up with space then put that jar in a normal pressure room?
If the jar was not thick enough to resist the exterior pressure, it would implode, just as a pressurized jar in space would explode.
Why do astronauts need a space helmet?
They will die. There appears to be some question as to whether they will freeze to death or if they would explode from the internal body pressure.
Could you explode in space?
Yes, you could explode in space by the pressure of the other planets.
In the vacuum of space will a can of coke explode?
It is unlikely that a can of Coke would explode in the vacuum of space because the pressure inside the can is not high enough to cause an explosion. The lack of air pressure in space would cause the liquid to rapidly boil and the can may rupture, but it would not explode violently.
Why do you explode in outer space?
Because there is no air and thus no pressure that would hold your atoms together
If air has pressure why don't we explode?
We don't explode, or implode, due to air pressure because the pressure inside our bodies balances the pressure outside our bodies. This is the normal state. At sea level and standard conditions, air pressure is about 14.7 pounds per square inch. In the non-normal state, such as decreasing or increasing the outside air pressure, our bodies attempt to compensate. Within limits, this is successful, such as going up and down in an elevator or in an airplane. In extreme conditions, such as very deep water, we can implode. In the opposite case, such as in outer space, we can explode.
Will oxygen cans explode in space?
No, oxygen cans will not explode in space. They are designed to withstand fluctuations in pressure and temperature, so they are safe to use in space environments.
Can your head explode in space due to the lack of atmospheric pressure?
Yes, in space, the lack of atmospheric pressure can cause a person's head to explode if they are not wearing a pressurized suit to maintain the necessary pressure around their body.
Just hypothetically speaking would a human body with no space suit or breathing apparatus implode or explode in the zero gravity of space?
It's not the zero gravity which gets you, it's the vacuum, which would cause some degree of explosion. In our normal environment we are surrounded by air with a pressure of 24 pounds per square inch, so when that pressure is removed, there is a lot of internal pressure that will expel gas and fluid (the fluid will also be boiling, because it is the pressure of the air which normally keeps water or aqueous fluids from boiling at normal body temperature). But although parts of the body will explode, most of the body will remain, it's not like a bomb going off and leaving nothing but an expanding cloud of debris.
Do you explode in space?
No, you do not explode in space. In the vacuum of space, there is no air pressure to cause your body to explode. However, without a spacesuit, you would not be able to breathe and would eventually lose consciousness and die due to lack of oxygen.
WOULD virtually any human or animal body explode on the Moon because of the pressure gap?
yes but if they are wearing a space suit
