Solid rocket propellants have the highest impulse densities typically 17 lbm-sec/in^3 or greater. Bi-propellant liquid rocket propellants such as Liquid Oxygen/Kerosene also have high density impulse, typically 12 lbm-sec/in^3 while Liquid Oxygen/Liquid Hydrogen have low density impulse below 6 lbm-sec/in^3.

SteveHydrogen and helium are the fuels that have the highest specific impulse in rocket engines. They provide maximum thrust with minimum fuel consumption due to their low molecular weight and high exhaust velocity. These properties make them ideal for high-performance rocket propulsion systems.

When the receptor have registered a the energy is converted to a electrochemical impulse?
Yes, when a receptor detects a stimulus, it triggers an electrochemical impulse to be sent along a nerve cell. This impulse travels to the brain where it is interpreted as a specific sensation or perception.
What transmits a nerve impulse at the highest rate?
Myelinated nerve fibers transmit nerve impulses at the highest rate due to the presence of insulation provided by the myelin sheath. This insulation helps the nerve impulse jump quickly from one node of Ranvier to the next, allowing for rapid transmission.
Is soil the highest specific heat capacity?
Water has a higher Specific Heat than soil. The very highest is ammonia.
Advantages of fuels?
Advantages of fuels: Easily Available, Produce Large Amount of Energy, High Calorific Value and Stability. The highest consumption rate in todayâ??s world is of fossil fuel.
What fluid has the biggest specific gravity?
Mercury has one of the highest specific gravities among common liquids at room temperature. Its specific gravity is about 13.6 times that of water.
