What is the difference between diatomic and poly-atomic molecules? Site some examples.

1 answer:

8 0

Their difference lies in the prefix used before each root word, atom. The diatomic molecules are composed only of 2 atoms such as that of the diatomic elements: H2, O2, N2, Cl2, etc. On the other hand, polyatomic molecules are made up of three or mole atoms such as NH4+, H2SO4, etc.

How did foucaults pendulum and coriolis effect are used to demonstrate earths tilt?

HACTEHA [7]

They do not demonstrate Earth's tilt. In fact, they're not "used" to demonstrate anything. It works the other way:. When you observe the Coriolis effect and the behavior of the Foucault pendulum, and you try to explain why the behave the way they do, one possible simple explanation for both of them is the Earth's ROTATION. Then, when you also observe the rising and setting of the sun and moon, and you also notice how the NUMBERS all go together, the case for the rotating, spherical Earth gets stronger and stronger.

A skier (m=59.0 kg) starts sliding down from the top of a ski jump with negligible friction and takes off horizontally. If h = 3

marissa [1.9K]

Answer:

35.20 m

Explanation:

By the law of conservation of energy we have,

$mg(H-h)=\frac{1}{2}mv^2$

$g(H-h)=\frac{1}{2}v^2$

$\Rightarrow H=\frac{v^2}{2g}+h$

where m= mass of the skier, h= 3.00 m

D= horizontal distance=13.9 m

H= maximum height attained

Also, the horizontal distance covered by the skier is

D=vt

$=v\frac{2g}{h}$

$\Rightarrow v^2=\frac{gD^2}{2h}$

thus, height H in terms of D is given by

$H=\frac{D^2}{2h}+h$

$H=\frac{13.9^2}{2\times3}+3$

H=35.20 m

Imagine that you are going to visit your friend. Before you get there, you decide to stop at the variety store. If you walk 200

SashulF [63]

Answer:

400m

Explanation:

Brainliest? :))

Let your initial displacement from your home to the store be

1 and your displacement from the store to your friend’s house

be Dd

Given: Dd

1 = 200 m [N]; Dd

2 = 600 m [S]

Required: Dd

Analysis: Dd

T 5 Dd

1 1 Dd

Solution: Figure 6 shows the given vectors, with the tip of Dd

joined to the tail of Dd

2. The resultant vector Dd

T is drawn in red,

from the tail of Dd

1 to the tip of Dd

2. The direction of Dd

T is [S].

T measures 4 cm in length in Figure 6, so using the scale of

1 cm : 100 m, the actual magnitude of Dd

T is 400 m.

Statement: Relative to your starting point at your home, your

total displacement is 400 m [S].

A wave of wavelength 0.3 m travels 900 m in 3.0 s. Calculate its frequency.

zzz [600]

Answer:

1000 Hz

Explanation:

The frequency would be 1000 Hz.

The frequency, wavelength, and speed of a wave are related by the equation:

v = fλ ..................(1)

where v = speed of the wave, f = frequency of the wave, and λ = wavelength of the wave.

Making f the subject of the formula:

f = v/λ.........................(2)

Also, speed (v) = distance/time.

From the question, distance = 900 m, time = 3.0 s

Hence, v = 900/3.0 = 300 m/s

Substitute v = 300 and λ = 0.3 into equation (2):

f = 300/0.3 = 1000 Hz
