MacBook Air turns off
My MacBook can suddenly turn off while I'm using it and turns on in a couple of seconds. Used to be rarely but now it happens probably every 10 mins. What's wrong?

There is an Apple Support article over at If your Mac restarted because of a problem – Apple Support which may help you.
I'd recommend you try using your MacBook in Safe Mode for a while and see if the issue persists while in Safe Mode. See How to use safe mode on your Mac – Apple Support

Hold the Option key on your keyboard and click the battery indicator in the menu bar of your MacBook. There should be a Battery Condition indicator, is this showing as normal?
See screenshot for reference.
Your MacBook can be booted into safe mode by holding the Shift key on startup. The article I linked previously (How to use safe mode on your Mac – Apple Support) explains how to boot into Safe Mode.
It's showing as normal, yeah. Just checked out.
How can I turn it on?
