Do some clocks contain mercury?
Yes, some older clocks, particularly antique or vintage models, may contain small amounts of mercury in the form of a mercury switch or mercury tilt sensor. However, modern clocks generally do not contain mercury due to environmental and health concerns associated with its toxicity.
Can mercury be used for radiation shielding?
Yes, mercury can be used for radiation shielding due to its high density and ability to absorb gamma rays. However, it is not commonly used for this purpose due to its toxicity and safety concerns. Lead is more commonly used for radiation shielding.
An aneroid barometer is different from a mercury barometer in that it does not contain?
An aneroid barometer does not contain mercury. Instead, it uses a small, flexible metal box called an aneroid cell to measure air pressure changes. Aneroid barometers are safer and more portable than mercury barometers.
What is the reaction of onyx to radiation?
Onyx is generally not significantly affected by radiation. It is a type of chalcedony quartz that is naturally formed and does not contain radioactive elements that would react to radiation in a noticeable way.
How are ultraviolet lights made?
Ultraviolet lights are made using special lamps that contain a gas such as mercury, which emits UV radiation when an electric current passes through it. The gas is enclosed in a tube made of quartz or special glass that allows the UV radiation to pass through. When the lamp is turned on, the electricity excites the gas atoms, causing them to release UV light.
